1 I've noticed on my amd64 systems that eix prints some nice extra
2 information, such as:
3
4 [I] app-portage/portage-utils
5 Available versions: 0.1.20 ~0.1.21 ~0.1.22 ~0.1.23
6 Installed: 0.1.20(22:36:18 10/16/06)(python)
7 Homepage: http://www.gentoo.org/
8 Description: small and fast portage helper tools written in C
9
10 (Some nice coloring and hilighting are also there which don't show up in
11 emails.)

13 My x86 systems don't show the same thing:
14
15 * app-portage/portage-utils
16 Available versions: 0.1.20 ~0.1.21 ~0.1.22 ~0.1.23
17 Installed: 0.1.20

21 I've been searching and racking my brain trying to find out what the
22 difference is between the amd64 and x86 installs that prevent this from
23 showing up on x86, to no avail. Is there a flag or setting or package
24 that I've overlooked, or is this just a nice feature that's only
25 available on amd64?
