I receive this message when upgrading to python-2.6.4: * ************************************************************************ * * You have just upgraded from an older version of Python. * You should run 'python-updater ${options}' to rebuild Python modules. * * ************************************************************************ My guess is that what is intended is that "${options}" would be evaluated to something specific. Unless the user is supposed to literally type "python-updater ${options}" Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge python
You'll get a list of options when you type python-updater -h ;) It's not supposed to be evaluated to anything, it's even specifically escaped in the ebuild
(In reply to comment #1) > You'll get a list of options when you type python-updater -h ;) It's not > supposed to be evaluated to anything, it's even specifically escaped in the > ebuild Yes, I am familiar with -h :-) I could just be dense, but if it's really not supposed to evaluate to anything, the "$" and curly braces are probably confusing to the user. This would seem to be more normal/standard message: You should run 'python-updater [options]' to rebuild Python modules.
Message is correct.
