The default /etc/make.conf.example contains:

PORTAGE_ELOG_CLASSES="warn error log"

This ensures that ewarn's, eerror's and elog's are logged but einfo's are not! Therefore important information that the user is supposed to see should not be shown by einfo.

From pkg_postinst:
    einfo "You may wish to read the Gentoo Linux Prelink Guide, which can be"
    einfo "found online at:"
    einfo "    http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/prelink-howto.xml"

Please s/einfo/elog/ in the pkg_postinst of all prelink ebuilds...
