Package: procps
Version: 2:3.3.15-2
Severity: minor
File: /usr/share/man/man1/ps.1.gz

Man page says

    the normal default output can be produced with this: ps -eo "%p %y %x %c"

# ps|wc
      5      20     140
# ps -eo "%p %y %x %c"|wc
    134     536    4783
# ps -o "%p %y %x %c"|wc
      5      20     142

So we see there should be no "e" in that sentence.

But wait,
$ ps|sed q
  PID TTY          TIME CMD
$ ps -o "%p %y %x %c"|sed q
  PID TTY          TIME COMMAND

So it is still not the actual default!
