Package: mythtv-status
Version: 0.10.2-3
Severity: normal

Hi Andrew,

I configured my mythtv-status package on wheezy to send me an email
when a scheduling conflict is found.

Unfortunately, there's a typo in the daily cronjob and it creates
cron spam:

  /etc/cron.daily/mythtv-status:
  Unknown option: -email-only-on-alert
  
  Use --help for help.
  
  Usage:
       mythtv-status [options]

Attached is a patch for it.

Cheers,
Francois

Subject: [PATCH] Fix typo in argument name

Without this fix, the daily cronjob would fail with the following
error message:

  /etc/cron.daily/mythtv-status:
  Unknown option: -email-only-on-alert

  Use --help for help.

  Usage:
       mythtv-status [options]
