43 I was thinking of including it in the info that is spit out when you search
44 for a package, for example:
45
46 eix -e pidgin
47 * net-im/pidgin (#gentoo-pidgin, #gentoo-desktop)
48 Available versions: (~)2.0.0 (~)2.0.1 (~)2.0.2 {avahi bonjour cjk crypt
49 dbus debug doc eds gadu gnutls groupwise gstreamer gtk krb4 meanwhile msn
50 ncurses networkmanager nls perl prediction qq sasl silc spell ssl
51 startup-notification tcl tk xscreensaver zephyr}
52 Homepage: http://pidgin.im/
53 Description: GTK Instant Messenger client
