If you have any of those packages installed, the news will display.
We try to filter news so that users aren't bombarded by things that
aren't relevant to them. For example, a few weeks ago there was
apparently a corruption in the mu MUA (which I'd never heard of),
which would be really important to know about if you were one of the
0.001% of Gentoo users who rely on it.
