Beware qatom slot may return '<unset> ' literal when package doesn't have any.
Sorry I didn't keep track of an example, sure I must have hit such case as I have it tested in some personal scripts.
(man page says something slighty #)

There may be similar issues with other atoms.

Thks 4 ur attention, interest & support.

i guess most of the time i m dealing with install-ed pkgs
most likely qatom should return something to me sensibly
