Right, I have read the code after opening this issue and noticed that too. I think that it is a good thing to have them consistent.

Maybe it is the man page that it out of date? I think the order doesn't matter (and if I read the code that seems to be true. It may be confusing though, so I'll make them consistent.

Bug#901643: autopkgtest: man page and help text don't agree on args order
Source: autopkgtest Version: 5.3.1 Hello, Running just `autopkgtest` outputs the following: usage: autopkgtest [options] [testbinary ...] testsrc ... running `autopkgtest --help` outputs: usage: autopkgtest [options] [testbinary ...] testsrc However, the man page says that it should be called like this: autopkgtest [options...] testsrc [testbinary...] It looks like the three texts don't agree on the placement of testsrc and testbinary. Maybe it is the man page that it out of date? Cheers, -- Alexandre Viau av...@debian.org signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
