 Hi there, why this command don't work in zsh:

/>>> Installing (1 of 1) sys-apps/tomoyo-tools-2.2.0_p20090727
 * Execute the following command to setup the initial policy configuration:
 *
 * emerge --config =sys-apps/tomoyo-tools-2.2.0_p20090727
 *
 * For more information, please visit the following.

 * http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/

>>> Recording sys-apps/tomoyo-tools in "world" favorites file...
>>> Auto-cleaning packages...

>>> No outdated packages were found on your system.

 * GNU info directory index is up-to-date.
[root@sakurazukamori /usr/src/linux]$ emerge --config
=sys-apps/tomoyo-tools-2.2.0_p20090727                                                                                             
9:44
zsh: sys-apps/tomoyo-tools-2.2.0_p20090727 not found
[root@sakurazukamori /usr/src/linux]$
bash                                                   /

Interesting. Looks like zsh treats a '=' character specially. I don't use 
zsh, so I don't know why this is. Seems like it does something similar to 
the bash builtin 'type':

weird% echo =find
/usr/bin/find

Your command works, when the = is escaped by a \, or when the stuff is 
quoted.

I don't use zsh, but a little of google's magic[1] shows:
 
> A command name with a = prepended is replaced with its full pathname. This can be very convenient. If it's not convenient for you, you can turn it off:

emerge --config "=sys-apps/tomoyo-tools-2.2.0_p20090727"

should work

the same when you try to emerge a certain version

=sys/libs/foobar-1.2

doesn't work

"=sys/libs/foobar-1.2"

does
