Description Satoru SATOH 2008-07-04 08:37:21 UTC

Description of problem:
Spacewalk-setup does not show its help. So there is no way to know its options
except for reading Spacewalk::Setup code.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
spacewalk-setup-0.01-3.el5.src.rpm


How reproducible: always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. spacewalk-setup --help
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
no help messages.


Expected results:
its help shown.


Additional info:

I'll attach a dirty, quickly hacked and halfway workaround patch for this issue. 

I have little experience with perl and it should be unrefined. Correct way to 
fix this problem might be writing complete POD text in bin/spacewalk, I think.

Simplified version of the patch.

I've simplified the patch a bit. The trouble is -- Spacewalk::Setup only seems
to have the boilerplate POD, not any meaningful docs.

I confirmed it works as expected. Thanks for your quick work! 
I'll close this.

Comment 6 Jan Pazdziora (Red Hat) 2008-07-10 09:31:27 UTC

Let me keep this bugzilla open for a while in MODIFIED state, to verify that it
got to the next package build / release.

Comment 7 Devan Goodwin 2008-09-05 14:29:01 UTC

Looks good in spacewalk 0.2. My apologies, forgot to check --help when I was re-organizing the installer code into spacewalk-setup. :)

Comment 8 Miroslav Suchý 2009-09-17 06:59:27 UTC

Spacewalk is released for long time.
