Package: libbobcat1 Version: 1.17.1-1 Severity: normal File: bobcat
The current getopt(3) function manual page shows a different `return value' section than peviously published getopt(3) man-pages. In particular it shows: ... If getopt() encounters an option with a missing argument, then the return value depends on the first charac- ter in optstring: if it is ':', then ':' is returned; otherwise '?' is returned. Bobcat 1.17.1 is based on the `old' manpage info (and will therefore erroneously report an undefined option character where it should report a missing option value), the upcoming new version (1.17.2) will implement a check for the first character of the option string, making sure that the initial character of the option string is always a ':'. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21.1 (SMP w/1 CPU core; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libbobcat1 depends on: ii libc6 2.7-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.3-20080116-1 GCC support library libbobcat1 recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
