bug#13562: Uname help output

2013-01-26 Thread Prashanth Devarajappa 
Hi There,

Just tried  Fedora 18, was looking to get the kernel version. When i
invoke uname with --help option, it doesn't print -r which can be used
to print the kernel version.

Here is the output for --help

uname --help
Usage: uname [OPTION]...
Print certain system information.  With no OPTION, same as -s.

  -a, --allprint all information, in the following
order,
 except omit -p and -i if unknown:
  -s, --kernel-nameprint the kernel name
  -n, --nodename   print the network node hostname
  -r, --kernel-release print the kernel release
  -v, --kernel-version print the kernel version
  -m, --machineprint the machine hardware name
  -p, --processor  print the processor type or "unknown"
  -i, --hardware-platform  print the hardware platform or "unknown"
  -o, --operating-system   print the operating system
  --help display this help and exit
  --version  output version information and exit

Looks like -r is in there and you just missed it
so I'm marking this as done.
