Description Francesco Turco 2017-11-16 16:08:47 UTC
=x11-themes/silver-xcursors-0.4 contains the following message for the users:

> To use this set of cursors, edit or create the file ~/.Xdefaults
> and add the following line:
> Xcursor.theme: Silver
> 
> You can change the size by adding a line like:
> Xcursor.size: 48
> 
> Also, to globally use this set of mouse cursors edit the file:
>    /usr/share/cursors/xorg-x11/default/index.theme
> and change the line:
>     Inherits=[current setting]
> to
>     Inherits=Silver
> 
> Note this will be overruled by a user's ~/.Xdefaults file.

Currently the ebuild uses the einfo function. In my opinion it should use the elog function instead because it is logged by default and it is meant to be read by users. See https://dev.gentoo.org/~zmedico/portage/doc/portage.html#package-ebuild-helper-functions-output for more details.
