Package: cron Version: 3.0pl1-107 Severity: wishlist crontab should support the conventional --help and --version options (crontab --help currently outputs the help as a side effect of an error, but it should do this without an error).
Note that it is was said in the debian-devel mailing-list (thread "Removing the manpage requirement for GUI programs?") that commands should support --help. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO8859-1 (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages cron depends on: ii adduser 3.112 add and remove users and groups ii debianutils 3.2.2 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.10.2-6 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libpam0g 1.1.1-2 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libselinux1 2.0.89-4 SELinux runtime shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.2-23 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip Versions of packages cron recommends: ii exim4 4.71-3 metapackage to ease Exim MTA (v4) ii exim4-daemon-light [mail-tran 4.71-3 lightweight Exim MTA (v4) daemon ii lockfile-progs 0.1.13 Programs for locking and unlocking Versions of packages cron suggests: ii anacron 2.3-14 cron-like program that doesn't go pn checksecurity <none> (no description available) ii logrotate 3.7.8-5 Log rotation utility -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
