Package: coreutils
Version: 6.10-3
Severity: minor

$ nohup --foo
nohup: invalid option -- -
Try `nohup --help' for more information.

Compare

$ grep --foo
grep: unrecognised option `--foo'
Usage: grep [OPTION]... PATTERN [FILE]...
Try `grep --help' for more information.

I suggest that nohup's error would be more helpful if it were similar to
grep's.
