Package: util-linux
Version: 2.16.1-4
Severity: normal

>From manpage:
        SYNOPSIS
               mkswap [-c] [-f] [-p PSZ] [-L label] [-U uuid] [size]

>From program:
        $ /sbin/mkswap --help
        Usage: mkswap [-c] [-pPAGESZ] [-L label] [-U UUID] /dev/name [blocks]

Spot the (significant) difference!

(The manpage lacks the non-optional _device_ argument!)
