Description Michal Jaegermann 2002-07-06 22:18:39 UTC 
Description of Problem:

In SELECT-OPTIONS and QUERY-OPTIONS sections one can see
" ... [-c,--configfiles] [-d,--docfiles] ..."
This is pretty confusing for "unitiated" especially if they just learned
a bit above that alternate forms are separated by a vertical bar
(cf. "-q|--query" and so on).

Fixed in rpm 4.4.x branch of cvs upstream.
