@@ -90,8 +90,8 @@ Make sure you are using the C trace function. Coverage.py provides two
implementations of the trace function. The C implementation runs much faster.
To see what you are running, use ``coverage debug sys``. The output contains
details of the environment, including a line that says either
-``tracer: CTracer`` or ``tracer: PyTracer``. If it says ``PyTracer`` then you
-are using the slow Python implementation.
+``CTrace: available`` or ``CTracer: unavailable``. If it says unavailble,
+then you are using the slow Python implementation.
Try re-installing coverage.py to see what happened and if you get the CTracer
as you should.
