# emaint --purge merges ERROR: module 'merges' does not have option '--purge-tracker' merges module options: -P, --purge-tracker Removes the list of previously failed merges. WARNING: Only use this option if you plan on manually fixing them or do not want them re-installed. sys-apps/portage-2.2.20.1 # eselect python list Available Python interpreters: [1] python2.7 [2] python3.4 * It is not well documented in man page, what the option exactly should be so I assumed "--purge". Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge sys-apps/portage-2.2.20.1 2. Use Python 3.4 3. run emaint --purge merges Probably 1. and 2. not necessary. Actual Results: user confusion: 1. refers to an option which is not used by user 2. says that this option is not available 3. list this unavailable option as an available option I am confused. I do not trust emaint. Expected Results: Not that much confusion. Is there any more documentation what exactly the goal of each module should be? Severity: At least I stop using this program. Shortly after starting to use it ;-)
