$ qpid-config --help ... -a <address>, --broker-addr=<address> Maximum time to wait for broker connection (in seconds) This help text is incorrect.
Really just a continuation of bug 692134, this was broken by the same commit (http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/qpid/trunk/qpid/tools/src/py/qpid-config?r1=987330&r2=1042398&pathrev=1051700). Need to go through *all* the usage text to verify correctness.
I found two errors, the one mentioned in this bug, and --force-if-not-used instead of --force-if-used. Fixed upstream here: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/qpid/trunk/qpid/tools/src/py/qpid-config?r1=1092780&r2=1092779&pathrev=1092780
Well spotted, and the change to the option name is even more serious. This should definitely be a blocker. It is very low risk.
Fix is in mrg_2.0.x.
The help content issue has been fixed, tested on RHEL5.6 / 6.1 i[36]86 / x86_64 on packages: qpid-tools-0.10-5.el5.noarch qpid-tools-0.10-4.el6.noarch -> VERIFIED
