Description of problem: SSIA Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): icu-4.6-3.fc16.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. genbrk --version Actual results: error in command line argument "--version" Usage: genbrk [-v] [-options] -r rule-file -o output-file Read in break iteration rules text and write out the binary data options: -h or -? or --help this usage text -V or --version show a version message -c or --copyright include a copyright notice -v or --verbose turn on verbose output -i or --icudatadir directory for locating any needed intermediate data files, followed by path, defaults to -d or --destdir destination directory, followed by the path Expected results: version string Additional info: --help/--copyright (does not) work in the same way.
Apparently this never worked, tried also with LibO's 4.4 and Wheezy's 4.8 Filed upstream as http://bugs.icu-project.org/trac/ticket/9124 Note: --help and --copyright actually do work. --help displays the help (without mentioning an error), the --copyright option writes a copyright notice to the generated output file, not stdout.
Upstream bug was closed with Resolution set to workingasdesigned use 'icuinfo'. That indeed gives a bunch of information..
