Package: grub-pc Version: 1.98+20100722-1 Severity: normal Tags: upstream The help command, and the --help option to various commands, now seems to show broken help output that lacks newlines between options and whitespace between an option and its help text.
For example, "cat --help" shows: Usage: cat FILE Show the contents of a file. --dosAccept DOS-style CR/NL line endings.-h, --helpDisplay this help and exit.-u, --usageDisplay the usage of this command and exit. This bug does not occur in the upstream grub-1.98 release, but it does occur with a current upstream snapshot from bzr, and it does occur with the current version in Debian. - Josh Triplett -- Package-specific info: *********************** BEGIN /proc/mounts /dev/disk/by-uuid/a8fb9a37-fac7-4a3e-8081-fc7b347bd0b2 / ext3 rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro,barrier=0,data=ordered 0 0 *********************** END /proc/mounts *********************** BEGIN /boot/grub/device.map (hd0) /dev/disk/by-id/ata-INTEL_SSDSA2MH080G1GC_CVEM8390007H080DGN *********************** END /boot/grub/device.map *********************** BEGIN /boot/grub/grub.cfg # # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE # # It is automatically generated by grub-mkconfig using templates # from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub # ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/00_header ### if [ -s $prefix/grubenv ];
