The function ShowPackageInformation prints part of the GAP banner. Up to now, it prints an overview of the loaded packages and then a line about GAP's interactive help system.

The proposed change separates the two parts,
the last line is printed by the new function ShowHelpInformation.

See oscar-system/GAP.jl/issues/1298 for a situation where one wants only the first part.
