Package: prolix Version: 0.01-1 Severity: serious * the manpage does not give a synopsis or explanation of options, only example uses not directly usable on standard files. No proper documentation of interactive mode either.
* trying a simple thing like: strings /usr/bin/gdmflexiserver|prolix -r '[a-z]' ... does filter, but I'm back to the shell without any possibility of interactive use * "prolix -h" tells that "-v" is --verbose, but attempting to use it makes it obvious that it is an alias to (undocumented) --version flag instead, and it does not even give prolix' version * "-l" says "Option log requires an argument", which -h does not tell about well... that makes it *far* less useful than "grep -v" in its current state - looking forward to see it in better shape... -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (500, 'oldstable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.1.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages prolix depends on: ii libdata-munge-perl 0.04-1 ii libipc-run-perl 0.90-1 ii libjson-perl 2.53-1 ii libmoose-perl 2.0401-1 ii libmoosex-configfromfile-perl 0.04-1 ii libmoosex-getopt-perl 0.37-1 ii libstring-shellquote-perl 1.03-1 ii libterm-readkey-perl 2.30-4+b2 ii libtry-tiny-perl 0.11-1 ii perl 5.14.2-6 prolix recommends no packages. prolix suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
