Package: inetutils-inetd
Version: 2:1.9.4-7
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

man inetd says:

> --resolve
>         Resolve local and remote IP addresses and pass them to the server
>         program via TCPLOCALHOST and TCPREMOTEHOST environment variables.
>         See ENVIRONMENT below. This option implies --environment.

but latter:

> In addition, if given the --remote option, inetd will set the following
> environment variables:
>
> TCPLOCALHOST: the DNS name of TCPLOCALIP.
>
> TCPREMOTEHOST: the DNS name of TCPREMOTEIP.

Moreover:
> # inetutils-inetd --environment --remote
> inetutils-inetd: unrecognized option '--remote'

So I guess the --remote is a typo for --resolve.

Please consider fixing debian/local/man/inetd.8

Thank you
