Subject: man page for autoconf doesn't document all available options Package: autoconf Version: 2.63-3 Severity: minor
"autoconf --help" provides documentation for the option "--install" while "man autoconf" does not. More generally, comparing the two outputs, "autoconf --help" seems to give more precisions about the available options. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages autoconf depends on: ii debianutils 3.1.3 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii m4 1.4.13-1 a macro processing language ii perl 5.10.0-23 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction Versions of packages autoconf recommends: ii automake [automaken] 1:1.10.2-1 A tool for generating GNU Standard Versions of packages autoconf suggests: pn autobook <none> (no description available) ii autoconf-archive 20090426-1 The Autoconf Macro Archive pn autoconf-doc <none> (no description available) pn autoconf2.13 <none> (no description available) ii gettext 0.17-6 GNU Internationalization utilities pn gnu-standards <none> (no description available) ii libtool 2.2.6a-4 Generic library support script -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
