Package: traceroute-nanog
Version: 1:2.0.15-1
Severity: normal
The man page seems to be belong to an other version of traceroute.
(Probably it comes from package 'traceroute'.)
Manual writes:
SYNOPSIS
traceroute [-46dFITUnreAV] [-f first_ttl] [-g gate,...]
[-i device] [-m max_ttl] [-p port] [-s src_addr]
[-q nqueries] [-N squeries] [-t tos]
[-l flow_label] [-w waittime] [-z sendwait]
[-UL] [-P proto] [--sport=port] [-M method] [-O mod_options]
[--mtu] [--back]
host [packet_len]
Meanwhile the program's own help is:
Usage: /usr/bin/traceroute [-adnruvAMOPQU$] [-w wait] [-S start_ttl]
[-m max_ttl] [-p port] [-q nqueries] [-g gateway] [-t tos]
[-s src_addr] [-I proto] host [data_size]
There are lot of differences.
