Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1910415 +++
Description of problem:
lpstat(1) from cups-client needs -h to specify a host to appear in the
command line prior to other arguments. There's nothing indicating this in
the docs or help text.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Multiple versions. (E.g., we also see this on Debian.)
How reproducible:
Note that the -h is ignored if it follows -r, but honored if it precedes
-r. In my test case, there is a cupsd running, but it is *not* listening to
port 1234. I'd expect the -h directive to apply regardless of order.
Actual results:
/home/mason$ lpstat -r -h 127.0.0.1:1234
scheduler is running
/home/mason$ lpstat -h 127.0.0.1:1234 -r
scheduler is not running
Expected results:
/home/mason$ lpstat -r -h 127.0.0.1:1234
scheduler is not running
/home/mason$ lpstat -h 127.0.0.1:1234 -r
scheduler is not running
