Package: lockfile-progs
Version: 0.1.15
Severity: normal

The manpage claims that lockfile-create, lockfile-remove, lockfile-touch, and 
lockfile-check support the -p and --use-pid options.

In reality, -p is not supported anywhere, and --use-pid only by lockfile-create 
and lockfile-check:

   michael@declan:~$ lockfile-create --use-pid foo
   michael@declan:~$ lockfile-check --use-pid foo
   michael@declan:~$ lockfile-touch --use-pid foo
   usage: lockfile-touch [--oneshot] [--lock-name] file
   michael@declan:~$ lockfile-remove --use-pid foo
   usage: lockfile-remove [--lock-name] file
   michael@declan:~$ rm foo.lock
   removed `foo.lock'
   michael@declan:~$ lockfile-create -p foo
   lockfile-create: invalid option -- 'p'
   usage: lockfile-create [--use-pid] [--retry retry-count] [--lock-name] file
   michael@declan:~$ lockfile-check -p foo
   lockfile-check: invalid option -- 'p'
   usage: lockfile-check [--use-pid] [--lock-name] file
   michael@declan:~$ lockfile-touch -p foo
   lockfile-touch: invalid option -- 'p'
   usage: lockfile-touch [--oneshot] [--lock-name] file
   michael@declan:~$ lockfile-remove -p foo
   lockfile-remove: invalid option -- 'p'
   usage: lockfile-remove [--lock-name] file
