Description Francesco Turco 2020-03-05 13:28:24 UTC
x11-misc/i3status-2.13 (and x11-misc/i3status-2.12) display the following einfo message at the end of the build process:

> i3status can be used with any of the following programs:
>    i3bar (x11-wm/i3)
>    x11-misc/xmobar
>    x11-misc/dzen
> Please refer to manual: man i3status

According to https://dev.gentoo.org/~zmedico/portage/doc/ch06s02.html elog is a better choice, because this message is important and users should take notice.
