Details

If multiple targets are specified with -Si, the output doesn't have empty lines separating the packages, making it very hard to read. Example follows:

Right, there is a missing newline in commit 9451b2e4f23a3c566fcfe3420c379b3cb3eb1f90
- printf("\n\n");
+ string_display(_("Description :"), alpm_pkg_get_desc(pkg));

The fix is adding a newline at this place :
+ printf("\n");
