no this isn't true as JFM showed us...

[EMAIL PROTECTED] [~]$ fink splitoffs netpbm-bin netpbm10
Information about 1923 packages read in 2 seconds.
Information about 27 shared libraries read in 0 seconds.

netpbm-bin is a child, it's parent netpbm10 has 2 children:
        -> netpbm10-shlibs
        -> netpbm-bin

netpbm10 has 2 children:
-> netpbm10-shlibs
-> netpbm-bin
so netpbm-bin has two parents and match_package doesn't account for this so neither can get_splitoffs see my other post on this topic.

Furthermore naming it this way would indicate two things:

There can be many children but only _one_ parent. Is that correct?

Yes.
