Please also note that the error message of 'btrfs device show' is kinda misleading: ERROR: unknown command 'device' I suppose that the code uses argv[1] while it should be using argv[2]. Also, the 'btrfs --help' output includes certain commands not mentioned in the manpage, like 'btrfs filesystem df'.

Oh please. I did check the BTS. The title "please update defrag documentation" did not imply to me that it covered the bug I was reporting. I'm sorry I didn't read through every open bug. However, could you perhaps not mistitle bugs in the future? The bug I reported was not just about defrag, it mentioned a whole bunch of other problems in the manpage as well. -- Freedom-based blog/wiki/web hosting: http://www.branchable.com/ signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Package: btrfs-tools Version: 0.19+20101101-2 Severity: normal The btrfs(8) manpage and the output of "/sbin/btrfs --help" do not entirely agree on some things. * manpage: btrfs filesystem defrag | [|...] --help: btrfs filesystem defragment [-vcf] [-s start] [-l len] [-t size] | [|...] It might be that both names work, but it'd be nice if the documentation was consistent. * manpage: btrfs device show | [|...] --help: btrfs filesystem show [|] The --help version seems to work, the former does not. * manpage: btrfs device balance --help: btrfs filesystem balance Same as for "device show". --help also mentions two commands the manpage does not: btrfs subvolume find-new btrfs filesystem df -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages btrfs-tools depends on: ii e2fslibs1.42~WIP-2011-09-16-1 ii libc6 2.13-21 ii libcomerr2 1.42~WIP-2011-09-16-1 ii libuuid12.19.1-5 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 btrfs-tools recommends no packages. btrfs-tools suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
