Description Martin Kyral 2012-10-04 15:31:54 UTC
Description of problem:
Tools included in cdrkit (distributed as dirsplit, genisoimage, icedax, wodim binary packages) have the usage information and information from man page differing significantly

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cdrkit-1.1.9-12.el6

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. for each binary from 'rpm -ql dirsplit genisoimage icedax wodim | grep bin' compare options described in man page and in the usage info (binary -h)
  
Actual results:
There are many options missing from the usage compared to man page and/or vice versa for almost all the tools.

Expected results:
Both documentation sources describe the same options for every tool

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unable to address this
request at this time.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate, in the next release of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
