Public bug reported:
The manpage for rar on Ubuntu says:
l[t] List content of archive [technical].
However, the actual usage accepted by the binary is:
l[t[a],b]
List archive contents [technical [all], bare].
(taken from rar.txt in rarlinux-5.4.0.tar.gz)
I've looked inside rar_5.3.b2-1.debian.tar.xz to check that the source package
is also broken.
There are probably also other outdated flags.
I've become aware of this bug after asking about it (and getting the answer)
here:
http://superuser.com/questions/1126666/machine-readable-list-of-files-
in-rar-archive
I'd offer to submit a patch updating rar.1 with the contents of the
latest rar.txt documentation if someone confirms first that it's useful
and welcome.
Thanks!
