Severity: minor
Dear Devscripts Maintainers,
In a offline session I typoed rc-alert --hepl,
whereupon wget call attempt kicked in:
Unknown option: hepl
rc-alert: wget failed!
(in a online session) followed by excessive bug list, instead
of just barfing at me and/or showing me the help blurb:
diff --git a/scripts/rc-alert.pl b/scripts/rc-alert.pl
index 610cc65..63c099e 100755
--- a/scripts/rc-alert.pl
+++ b/scripts/rc-alert.pl
@@ -138,7 +138,7 @@ GetOptions("help|h" => \$opt_help,
"popcon" => \$popcon,
"pc-vote" => \$popcon_by_vote,
"pc-local" => \$popcon_local,
- );
+ ) or exit 1;
if ($opt_help) { print $usage; exit 0; }
if ($opt_version) { print $version; exit 0; }
Or even more lazy:
- );
+ ) or print $usage and exit 1;
so the reader won't get a chance to re-type and typ0 it
once again, but just the help :P
