Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: coreutils
For example:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ tail -1 /var/log/messages
Jan 3 10:56:30 twiadria -- MARK --
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ tail -1 /var/log/messages*
tail: invalid option -- 1
Try `tail --help' for more information.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
I know -1 is deprecated but shouldn't they both work, or don't work?
** Affects: coreutils (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
--
tail -1 file works, tail -1 file* doesn't
