And on second thoughts, this bug was posted for Lucid (10.04). Lucid is using version 7.4 of coreutils: $ apt-cache show coreutils Package: coreutils Essential: yes Priority: required Section: utils Installed-Size: 12988 Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com> Original-Maintainer: Michael Stone <mst...@debian.org> Architecture: amd64 Version: 7.4-2ubuntu3
Lucid is still maintained, and the documentation bug is still there (for French translation and other languages)... and I doubt upstream will fix a translation bug on the help for this very old coreutils version. Indeed it is not so important as the correct documentation can be found - in english (it's OK, only some languages got bugs in the translation) - in the man (it is correct... as it is in English even for French versions of Ubuntu!) - searching on the web. It does not prevent od from working correctly. So indeed, for Lucid, where the bug is still present: Importance ==> Low seams fine. ... but Status ==> Invalid is strange, as I confirm the bug is still there! Of course if you want to reproduce the bug you must have the buggy translations installed on your system (take French for example), and issue the command after having set the LANG variable to some variant of French. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/784758 Title: Wrong documentation for 'od' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/coreutils/+bug/784758/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
