-{type: [install, upgrade], message: <<EOM
-After src commit 8ccd0b876e, bear can no longer intercept compile commands using
-the dynamic linker preload method.  See
-https://github.com/rizsotto/Bear/issues/557 for details.
-
-An alternative method for bear to intercept compile commands is via wrappers.
-This method requires links under %%PREFIX%%/lib/bear/wrapper.d/ to any command
-called to build your program.  The bear package now installs links to common
-tools such as compilers and linkers.  If a link is missing, create it manually,
-submit a bug report, or supply links in a custom directory passed as an argument
-to bear's --wrapper-dir flag.
-
-The --force-wrapper option must be supplied when using the wrapper method.
-Example:
-
-% bear --force-wrapper -- make
-EOM
