Public bug reported:
$ python-coverage --help
Coverage.py, version 3.6
Measure, collect, and report on code coverage in Python programs.
usage: coverage <command> [options] [args]
Commands:
annotate Annotate source files with execution information.
combine Combine a number of data files.
erase Erase previously collected coverage data.
help Get help on using coverage.py.
html Create an HTML report.
report Report coverage stats on modules.
run Run a Python program and measure code execution.
xml Create an XML report of coverage results.
Use "coverage help <command>" for detailed help on any command.
Use "coverage help classic" for help on older command syntax.
For more information, see http://nedbatchelder.com/code/coverage
Based on the above, I should be able to call "coverage help":
$ coverage help
coverage: command not found
The help output should reference the correct script name (in this case
python-coverage) or even better yet, the name under which the script was
called, since the package provides three different names for the same
executable:
$ dpkg -L python-coverage | grep bin/ | xargs ls -l
