Package: csound
Version: 1:4.23f12-3
Severity: minor
Near the top of the man page, the following example of csound invocation
is given:
csound -s -otest -b1024 -B1024 -m7 -P128
Yet, when trying this csound complains the -P is not a valid option:
tirith% csound -s -otest -b1024 -B1024 -m7 -P128
Using default language
0dBFS level = 32767.0

flag defaults: csound -s -otest -b1024 -B1024 -m7 -P128
Note the last line: it says the -P128 is one of the defaults. This
line shows up even when csound is invoked without any arguments.
Is the -P option a recently deprecated option? What replaced it?
