• Bug#265412: devscripts: Specifying an unknown option causes a bash usag

    From Steve Kowalik@1:229/2 to All on Fri Aug 13 04:00:07 2004

    Package: devscripts
    Version: 2.8.1
    Severity: normal
    File: /usr/bin/tagpending

    When an option that doesn't exist is given to tagpending, a bash usage
    message is printed.

    steven@broken:~% tagpending -nx
    tagpending error: unrecognized option -nx

    GNU bash, version 3.00.0(1)-release (i386-pc-linux-gnu)
    These shell commands are defined internally. Type `help' to see this list. Type `help name' to find out more about the function `name'.
    Use `info bash' to find out more about the shell in general.
    Use `man -k' or `info' to find out more about commands not in this list.

    A star (*) next to a name means that the command is disabled.

    game from ten years ago.

    Doh. I meant 'usage', not 'help'. Sigh.
