Description Narada Sage 2003-05-20 12:34:54 UTC

Since I moved from stable x86 to testing ~x86 I have been unable to determine 
whether a package was in stable or testing without looking at the ebuild.  
Doing ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="" emerge -s package or ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" emerge -s 
package doesn't seem to work.

Can I request that in when listing search data (emerge -s or -qs) that some 
concise indication is made of whether this package is in stable or testing by 
stating keywords or otherwise?  This would be extremely useful.

check out gentoolkit and the suite of apps in it

there is another bug about integrating those apps with portage
