The eix man page is way too long, and about 90% of it is only useful to |

In this case, the information you want was snuck into the examples (!!!) |

in the "Slots" section of output. You'll notice that one of the |
13 |
examples has a series of !flags, while the description says the output |

indicates RESTRICT= options, and you get to extrapolate from there. So, |
