       This is a negotiator plugin for extracting packages downloaded from the internet.  This plugin picks the
       best Extract plugin to do the actual work.  Which plugins are picked depend on the properties you
       specify, your platform and environment.  It is usually preferable to use a negotiator plugin rather than
       using a specific Extract Plugin from your alienfile.

pick
        my $name = Alien::Build::Plugin::Extract::Negotiate->pick($format);
