Description of problem: htt, the wrapper to htt_server, just seems to pass on all option args to htt_server and for unknown option the output loops forever. Package version: 11.4-69.svn1856 How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. htt -h 2. htt --help Actual results: htt loops forever with: : htt_server [-d] [-lcbasiclocale localename] [-ifpath_name ifpath] [-if ifname] [-port portnumber] [-hostname hostname] [-conversionkeys keys] htt_server [-d] [-lcbasiclocale localename] [-ifpath_name ifpath] [-if ifname] [-port portnumber] [-hostname hostname] [-conversionkeys keys] : Expected results: The output to only appear once. Additional info: Presumably htt_server returns an error for a bad option, causing htt to retry again and again.
should be fixed in -70.svn1856. please confirm it.
Thanks. It would be nice if htt printed out a error message too for unknown options like htt_server does.
In the current rawhide 12.0.1-1, the command htt --help only display a single line 'Usage: htt [-retryonerror NUM]' unlike htt_server [-d] [-lcbasiclocale localename] [-ifpath_name ifpath] [-if ifname] [-port portnumber] [-hostname hostname] [-conversionkeys keys] Is this the correct behaviour?
Yes, right. but according to jens's suggestion, it will be changed.
Confirmed that the loop problem has been resolved in rawhide (im-sdk-12.0.1-1). Filed bug 131216 in regards to the error message.
