euse -a In the output there is sometimes the letter F instead of G. Reader cannot find the meaning even in "man euse".


 * Whats Reader? Post an example, capital F is usually FORCE under most nix based systems. - Killerc (talk) 03:51, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

euse
This needs updating on the euse side i believe.

(Don't question why i use this i know its a mess but this is why its a good example)

Most of these are set globally, but the final column; berkdb xmlrpc, bzip2 etc is not explained. Also some things are listed twice, i very very rarely use the - flag on anything as its not needed for my installed system, yet things like: xmlrpc             [-      ] (xmlrpc) xmlrpc             [-      ] (xmlrpc) are listed twice, without any explanation as to why other than its a -, its obviously listed in 2 different files/locations where the flags are set but which? - Killerc (talk) 03:52, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

equery
Shouldn't the whole section about equery be moved to equery (merge the info into the page dedicated to it)? Same with the other invocations. Augustin (talk) 14:30, 27 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Hi Augustin, what you're proposing seems viable to me. The Gentoolkit page is not even close to explaining all the tools that come with it. If the same amount of detailed explanation is given to the other tools then the Gentoolkit article would be way too long for one page... It seems to me that one option would be to nest the Equery article under the Gentoolkit article (Gentookit/Equery). This method could be used with other tools since they are part of Gentoolkit as well (Gentoolkit/euse, etc). Another option is to just link the "tool" pages back to the main Gentoolkit article (like the existing Equery article). I guess this might be something to ask on the Suggestions page.


 * If a package contains more than one tool, should the tools be listed "under" the package information? Or should each tool be in an "disconnected" article?
