Package: git-core Version: 1:1.6.3.3-1 Severity: minor File: /usr/lib/git-core/git-help
I don't have info(1) installed, because I use Emacs' internal info client. I was curious to see what would happen when I tried to run git help -i. It turns out that it silently fails. It SHOULD print an error of some sort. $ strace -f git help log -i |& grep info stat64("/usr/lib/git-core/git-mailinfo", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=861076, ...}) = 0 stat64("/usr/lib/git-core/git-update-server-info", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=334400, ...}) = 0 execve("/usr/lib/git-core/info", ["info", "gitman", "git-log"], [/* 41 vars */]) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) execve("/usr/local/bin/info", ["info", "gitman", "git-log"], [/* 41 vars */]) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) execve("/usr/bin/info", ["info", "gitman", "git-log"], [/* 41 vars */]) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) execve("/bin/info", ["info", "gitman", "git-log"], [/* 41 vars */]) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) execve("/usr/games/info", ["info", "gitman", "git-log"], [/* 41 vars */]) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_AU.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages git-core depends on: ii libc6 2.9-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcurl3-gnutls 7.19.5-1 Multi-protocol file transfer libra ii libdigest-sha1-perl 2.12-1 NIST SHA-1 message digest algorith ii liberror-perl 0.17-1 Perl module for error/exception ha ii libexpat1 2.0.1-4 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii perl-modules 5.10.0-24 Core Perl modules ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-13 compression library - runtime Versions of packages git-core recommends: ii less 429-2 pager program similar to more ii openssh-client [ssh-client] 1:5.1p1-5+b1 secure shell client, an rlogin/rsh ii patch 2.5.9-5 Apply a diff file to an original pn rsync <none> (no description available) Versions of packages git-core suggests: pn git-arch <none> (no description available) pn git-cvs <none> (no description available) pn git-daemon-run <none> (no description available) pn git-doc <none> (no description available) ii git-email 1:1.6.3.3-1 fast, scalable, distributed revisi pn git-gui <none> (no description available) pn git-svn <none> (no description available) pn gitk <none> (no description available) pn gitweb <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
