Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

String::Approx lets you match and substitute strings approximately. With this you can emulate errors: typing errors, speling errors, closely related vocabularies (colour vs. color), genetic mutations (GAG vs. ACT), abbreviations (McScot, MacScot).

Packages by operating system

Compare recorded versions, then open a package for dependency, file, checksum, and repository evidence. Version strings are distribution-specific, not a ranking of newer software.

Mapping provenance

Only source-backed identity signals create public cross-OS links. A reviewer can later approve or dispute an inferred relationship without rewriting native package history.
