1 Paludis --info does not work for me. Plz2fix.
2 In particular, have a look at
3 http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=262277#c4
4 Where both emerge --info and paludis --info is posted. Sometimes, more
5 is less.

7 While it may be useful to post all the information about the
8 package-manager for *you*, it's not helping us (bug-wranglers) any. We
9 need one screenfull of text that concisely shows us the state of your
10 system. We really can guess a lot from the emerge --info output. We
11 don't really want to care which package manager you're using, apart
12 from a discrete text.
13
14 Also, we still get people who just post their paludis --info. Could you
15 please put in *bold letters* at the top of that output that it's not
16 the info they'll need when reporting bugs.

18 Thanks,
