The menu for etc-update that directs users how to edit files is a little confusing. Please select a file to edit by entering the corresponding number. (don't use -3 or -5 if you're unsure what to do) (-1 to exit) (-3 to auto merge all remaining files) (-5 to auto-merge AND not use 'mv -i'): From when I first used it, I always skipped reading the first line, thinking only the options in the brackets are possible options. Therefore, never realizing I could enter the file number to use a diff of the files. I only found this out after using gentoo for over a year:), and I'm sure I'm not the first one. It would be much more clear, if this was made consistent, my having all options listed in the brackets like this: Please select a file to edit by entering the corresponding number. Don't use -3 or -5 if you're unsure what to do (# of file to edit) (-1 to exit) " (-3 to auto merge all remaining files) (-5 to auto-merge AND not use 'mv -i'): Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
