Package: rinse
Version: 4.1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: none, Dima Kogan <[email protected]>
Hi. The manpage says
Basic usage is as simple as:
rinse --distribution fedora-core-6 --directory /tmp/test
This will download the required RPM files and unpack them into
a minimal installation of Fedora Core 6.
This is incorrect. This just happened:
$ sudo rinse --distribution fedora-37 --directory root_fedora
The name of the architecture is mandatory.
Please specify i386, amd64 or arm64.
So the architecture is a required argument, and the manpage should
include that in its example.
Thanks!
