15 Do you refer to this?
16 Checks for new news messages should be displayed:
17
18 * After an emerge sync
19 * After an emerge --pretend
20 * Before an emerge <target> (which may also include a red warning
21 message)
22
23 How can there be new messages with emerge --pretend if emerge --sync is
24 the only way to get them? Should be saying unread messages and it would
25 be clear to me.
