Title:
gdb man page doesn't mention option "--args"
Status in gdb package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
gdb manpage doesn't list --args as a possible command line argument.
This very important option allows one to pass an executable name with
/its/ command line, and is possibly one of the most generally useful
of gdb's arguments. It is documented in the info file, but
unaccountably missing from the man page.
Description: Ubuntu 15.10
Release: 15.10
