Subject: bug#29420: 26.0; doc of `list-packages'
Date: Thu, 23 Nov 2017 18:05:57 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <eb6a7e65-28f5-4a3a-86af-c4cca01e0427@default> (raw)
`C-h f list-packages' should give you a better description of the
display that results. It wouldn't hurt to succinctly describe each
column.
`C-h r g package menu' should give you a better description. It should
describe each column of the display. It could describe column `status'
better, for instance. Apparently one of the possible values is
`dependency', but that is not mentioned.
