 # Context
 
 In 2021, we (the API and CLI team) wanted to improve the pretty printing of `optparse-applicative`,
 so that it aligns most flags vertically. E.g. we wanted this behavior:
 
 ```

 We did [a PR](https://github.com/pcapriotti/optparse-applicative/pull/494) to `optparse-applicative` with the tweak we need. This PR is way smaller than our PR from 2021 and so we are hopeful it will be accepted.
 
+## Update 2025-11-05

+After [our PR to `optparse-applicative`](https://github.com/pcapriotti/optparse-applicative/pull/494) got merged, [`cardano-cli`'s PR](https://github.com/IntersectMBO/cardano-cli/pull/899) got revisited.
+The changes in the rendered help are still detrimental to the help text readability, therefore the PR was closed, and the attempt to abandon the fork postponed.

 # Consequences
 
-We have `cardano-cli` depend on [pcapriotti/optparse-applicative](https://github.com/pcapriotti/optparse-applicative) instead of [input-output-hk/optparse-applicative](https://github.com/input-output-hk/optparse-applicative), when [our PR](https://github.com/pcapriotti/optparse-applicative/pull/494) to `optparse-applicative` is merged and released.
