Ah found it in the GLEP: |
| 21 |
"The package manager filters the news item and, if it is relevant, marks |
| 22 |
the news item for reading. The package manager should also display a |
| 23 |
notice informing the user that there are unread news items." |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
This means that adding a >=message is useless as it gets filtered away |
| 26 |
at the first sync. Use elog instead. |
