Hi!
I was toying around with getconf and was looking for options to print
all configuration values. I've found there is a -a option for that. You
can find about it by running getconf with no arguments:
---
raz...@valhalla:~$ getconf
Usage: getconf [-v specification] variable_name [pathname]
getconf -a [pathname]
---
However, the option is not printed when using the --help option:
---
raz...@valhalla:~$ getconf --help
Usage: getconf [-v SPEC] VAR
or: getconf [-v SPEC] PATH_VAR PATH
Get the configuration value for variable VAR, or for variable PATH_VAR
for path PATH. If SPEC is given, give values for compilation
environment SPEC.
For bug reporting instructions, please see:
<http://www.debian.org/Bugs/>.

Moreover, there is no documentation in the manual page about the -a
option. Should this be corrected? Should I submit a feature request/bug
report on this issue?

If you haven't already done so, install reportbug and then run:
reportbug libc6
and mention the absence of the -a option to getconf in the manual page.
Arthur.
