Description Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-11-08 18:29:28 UTC 
Contrary to coding practices and common sense, 'eix --help' sends output to 
stderr instead of stdout. This wouldn't be such a problem if the output wasn't 
25+ lines as well, but it's generally not a good idea IMHO. Patch to follow.
