When piping equery, it automatically sets --quiet mode. It is well documented and there are many forum threads talking about it. That behavior is not about to change. There are a number of scripts out there depending on that. The output is often fed directly into other apps or even emerge. You just need to turn of the piping autodetection to get the normal full output. brian@big_daddy ~/Dev/git/portage $ equery -h Gentoo package query tool Usage: equery [global-options] module-name [module-options] global options -h, --help display this help message -q, --quiet minimal output -C, --no-color turn off colors -N, --no-pipe turn off pipe detection -V, --version display version info
