I noticed that some utilities provide a handy link to the website (which in turn connects the users to bug database, mailing list, online docs, ...); for example, look at 'ls --help | tail -n3':
GNU coreutils online help: <http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/> Full documentation at: <http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/ls> or available locally via: info '(coreutils) ls invocation' or 'm4 --help | tail -n3': Report bugs to: bug...@gnu.org GNU M4 home page: <http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/> General help using GNU software: <http://www.gnu.org/gethelp/> In our executables, we are rather inconsistent with --help qemu-nbd mentions: Report bugs to <qemu-devel@nongnu.org> qemu-ga mentions: Report bugs to <mdr...@linux.vnet.ibm.com> while qemu-system-*, qemu-img, and qemu-io mention nothing at all. Is it worth unifying these to all mention qemu-devel@nongnu.org as the primary bug-report site, and/or to add mention of <http://qemu.org> as a site for further information? Likewise, with --version, qemu-io and qemu-ga lack the git suffix present in qemu-system-* and just added in qemu-nbd. I can submit patches to make things consistent, and think it is 2.10 material, but first want to get consensus on what the behavior should be. -- Eric Blake, Principal Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc. +1-919-301-3266 Virtualization: qemu.org | libvirt.org
