Package: parallel
Version: 20120422-1
Severity: normal

After a rather thorough RTFM session, I tried:

 [1+0]~$ mkdir test-parallel
 [2+0]~$ cat > foobarbaz
foo
bar
baz
 [3+0]~$ cat foobarbaz | parallel --gnu --pipe dd of=test-parallel/out'{}' :::

 [4+0]~$ ls -l test-parallel/
total 0
-rw-r--r-- 1 itz itz 0 Sep  9 20:57 out
 [5+0]~$ cat test-parallel/out
 [6+0}~$

I expected rather something along the lines of:

 [4+0]~$ ls -l test-parallel/
total 0
-rw-r--r-- 1 itz itz 4 Sep  9 20:57 out1
-rw-r--r-- 1 itz itz 4 Sep  9 20:57 out2
-rw-r--r-- 1 itz itz 4 Sep  9 20:57 out3
 [5+0]~$ cat test-parallel/out1
foo
 [6+0]~$ cat test-parallel/out2
bar
 [7+0]~$ cat test-parallel/out3
baz

I am beginning to share Joey's feelings wrt this version of parallel ...
