--- Begin Message ---Package: pi Version: 1.1.9-1 Severity: minor Hi, It's always fun to make awefully long bug reports about incredibly minor issues, so here goes: there is a strange correspondence with the number of digits given as an argument on the command line, and the number actually printed. One hypothesis I had was that a better approximation was calculated based on a previous approximation, and that the new approximation had more than one number of digits extra. So it would not make sense to not print the superfluous number of digits since they had been calculated anyway. But even then, too many digits were printed even for the cases just before where you start calculating a new approximation, like 5 and 9 and 14. Look at the output of the following command ( substract one or two from the second number for the leading dot and the 3 if you don't count it ). I'd prefer if the command would print exactly the number of digits asked for, since I may be interested in getting the nth number of pi, and get the wrong one by accident this way.
