Package: util-linux
Version: 2.39.2-6
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

The prlimit manual page lists the options that can be used to configure
limits, but doesn't say what units are used for each or what forms of
value are acceptable (for example: decimal, hexadecimal, or whether any
suffixes like "G" are accepted).  It should.

Running prlimit without any arguments will list units for each setting,
but that's not an obvious thing to try.

- Michael
