Hi Christian, * Daniel Serpell <[email protected]> [2026-01-27 16:59]:
Package: llama.cpp-tools
Version: 7593+dfsg-3
Severity: minor
Dear maintainer,
Current man pages for the tools are garbled, for example:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
$ man llama-cli
LLAMA-CLI(1) User Commands LLAMA-CLI(1)
NAME
llama-cli - llama-cli
DESCRIPTION
load_backend: loaded CPU backend from
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ggml/backends0/libggml-cpu-zen4.so ----- com‐
mon params -----
-h, --help, --usage print usage and exit --version
show version and build info -cl, --cache-list show
list of models in cache --completion-bash print
source-able bash completion script for llama.cpp --verbose-prompt
print a verbose prompt before generation (default: false) -t,
--threads N number of CPU threads to use during
generation (default: <num_cpus>)
(env: LLAMA_ARG_THREADS)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
It seems that the parsing of the 'llama-cli --help' command should redirect
standard error to /dev/null, and the parsing of the initial options should
be fixed.
This actually makes the build non reproducible. Can you please apply the attached patch?
Thanks! Jochen
