Package: moreutils
Version: 0.60-1
Severity: wishlist

Using pee to work with something generating output but also going through
more processing before heading to a logfile gets icky, because pee always
has the pipes it uses to talk to the child processes buffered.

e.g.  output-generating-thing | pee "cat" "ts >logfile" results in the
terminal output being batched due to the output buffer in pee for the pipe
to cat, no matter how many places one adds stdbuf invocations.
