Thank you Alex. We believe Web 3.0 is the next level.

You are right. This is what I did in the first place, but my motivation for
switching from one to multiple lines was to make the reader see the individual
package names at first glance (since they become aligned vertically), as well
as easing select/paste operations to install specific packages. This is also
why all packages are always listed, even when some could be mandatory
dependencies. Yaourt's exclusion is a mere oversight; the LTTng project doesn't
discriminate amongst Linux distributions! :)

So I am open to both options.

Those are basically the same thing, Trace Compass is just a move/rename. You could only list Trace Compass, even though it isn't officially "launched" yet, but will be Real Soon(tm).
