Firas, I see what you mean. The lack of mention of long options in the usage summary and man-page synopsis threw me off the trail.
My use case was to pass in a laundry list of devices on the command line, and have swapoff(8) do its thing while ignoring invalid-device errors (rather than stick a "2>/dev/null || true" afterward), so the clarification of what -e/--ifexists does is appreciated as well. I'll change this to a wishlist-type bug, requesting more clarity on the man page (flesh out description of -e/--ifexists to what you wrote) and usage summary (mention long options). -- swapon/swapoff not as described in man page https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/577232 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
