Thanks Madhi, I can see the problem and I'm working on a fix now.
Fix merged in pcp git master branch, will be in pcp-4.3.3 release. Author: Nathan Scott <nathans> Date: Mon May 20 12:09:44 2019 +1000 pcp-dstat: fix handling of --bits command line option We were inadvertently shielding the code implementing --bits from running due some incorrect code logic - fixed & updated regression test qa/1187 to exercise this option now. Resolves Fedora BZ #1711517.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 30 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 30 on 2020-05-26. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '30'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 30 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
This has long been fixed, looks like the automated BZ closing process missed this one.
