Description Eduardo Bray 2021-12-28 15:32:33 UTC 
app-portage/gentoolkit-0.5.1-r1

The 'c' or 'change' module is treated as a "unknow module" contrary to what the documentation on "equery -h" and "man equery" show.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1a. $ equery c portage
1b. $ equery changes portage
Actual Results:  
just output "!!! Unknown module 'c' " or "Unknown module 'changes' "

Expected Results:  
the changelog list of the package

It can't work anymore, changelogs are gone in the git era (Gentoo stopped doing them).

Ok with that, but I don't think this bug should be closed until the documentation is fixed.

sorry, yes, of course: could you try https://github.com/gentoo/gentoolkit/pull/18.patch?

I used patch-18 against =app-portage/gentoolkit-9999 and it works. The patch failed against gentoolkit-0.5.1-r1.
My system is a Pi400 with ARM64.
