Subject: bug#59002: Bug from profile path name?

From: Greg Hogan <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 3 Nov 2022 14:56:10 -0400

With an '@' character in the profile path I see the following error.

(the reason for using the full package@version in the profile path is
to preserve successfully built packages when garbage collecting during
testing of updates to dependent packages)

Greg
