I like it! it seems better to me to keep "Comment" and the comment text in the same line; especially since we strive to have "short" comments. However, it seems to me that this has the chance of breaking other tools. Reading this diff I've discovered the -l flag for pkg_info that is meant to aid parsing the output of pkg_info. I have no clue if this option is used anywhere, but I'd prefer not to discover it when we're this close to the release :) In particular, pkg_info -lxxx quirks will change: @@ -1,7 +1,6 @@ xxxInformation for inst:quirks-7.10 -xxxComment: -exceptions to pkg_add rules +Comment: exceptions to pkg_add rules
