28 Hi Andrew,

30 This is, what I have:
31
32 * app-admin/procinfo
33 Available versions: 18-r2
34 Homepage: http://www.kozmix.org/src/
35 Description: Displays some kernel stats and info on a running Linux system
36
37 [I] app-admin/procinfo-ng
38 Available versions: 2.0.304-r1
39 Installed versions: 2.0.304-r1(05:40:40 01/10/15)
40 Homepage: https://sourceforge.net/projects/procinfo-ng/
41 Description: Completely rewrite of the old system monitoring app procinfo
42
43 Found 2 matches
44
45 So, the *-ng seems not to match the installed manpage?
46 Something is wrong here...
47
48 Cheers
