When checking the help for emerge (via 'emerge --help') there lists available options (Options: -[abBcCdDefgGhikKlnNoOpqPsStuvV]). When going through and checking each one I come across option i. I am given this response: usage: emerge [options] emerge: error: no such option: -i Perhaps it was not defined. Or needs to be removed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. At the terminal type, "emerge --help" 2. Double check for 'i' under the Options list. 3. Try using it (e.g. emerge -i vi). Actual Results: Terminal responds with: usage: emerge [options] emerge: error: no such option: -i Expected Results: Maybe run the action --info. Or someother function, or remove the 'i' listing under Options. *** Deprecated use of action 'info', use '--info' instead Portage 2.1.2.12 (default-linux/x86/2007.0, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.5-r4,
