Thanks for thinking along.
perl6-readline depends field is: Depends: libreadline8, raku-api-2021.09 rakudo tracker is set with: Affected: .depends ~ /^raku-api-/ This fails if the regexp is applied to the *whole* Depends field value because the regexp is anchored to the beginning of the string.
True, that's why I was pretty sure that ben only considers individual entries. But I just checked the ben documentation [1] and believe you are right. Particularly this:
"""Packages fields may contain a list of values comma-separated. Ben splits the list before looking with "…" for a match.
"""which suggest that doesn't apply to regular expressions and I see loads of (^|\s) in other ben files.
