Hello,

I'm using ls from the Debian Sarge Distribution. There is a bug in the
german translation of the man page. Since the translator is not mentioned, I
write to you.

       -B, --ignore-backups
              do not list implied entries ending with ~

The word 'implied' obviously means that a command like

ls --ignore-backups

doesn't show files like ".mailcap~" with a tilde at the end,
whereas

ls --ignore-backups *

does, because there is a file pattern given.

The german text

       -B, --ignore-backups
              Einträge, die mit ~ enden, nicht ausgeben.

does not respect the word 'implied'. A possible translation was

       -B, --ignore-backups
              Implizite Einträge, die mit ~ enden, nicht ausgeben.

Thanks for making the fileutils, BTW.


Regards,

Christian
