mamba-repoquery: Search for all packages satisfying specific constraints.
$ mamba repoquery search ${sphinx<5}
try on your machine

This command is using the "mamba repoquery" tool to search for a package in the software repositories.

The "mamba" command is a package manager, similar to "conda", but optimized for faster package installations. It is used to manage packages and their dependencies in a software environment.

The "repoquery" command is a specific functionality provided by mamba (similar to the "yum" or "dnf" package managers in Linux) that allows users to query information about packages in the repositories.

In this specific command, the "search" keyword is used to specify that the user wants to search for a package. The package being searched for is specified inside the curly brackets ("{ }") after the "search" keyword.

In this case, the package being searched for is "${sphinx<5}". The "${sphinx<5}" is a package name with a version constraint. It is indicating that the command wants to search for any version of the package "sphinx" that is less than version 5.

Overall, this command is searching the software repositories using mamba's repoquery tool to find any version of the package "sphinx" that is less than version 5.
