bug#31424: BUGREPORT for "nl" command

hi,

it seems "-n" as an option to "nl" in Kubuntu - "GNU coreutils 8.28" does
not work anymore, because "nl -n=ln city.old" gives me:

______________________________________
nl: ungültiges Zeilennummerformat: »=ln“
„nl --help“ liefert weitere Informationen.
______________________________________

wheras "nl --number-format=ln city.old" gives me:

______________________________________
1       London
2       Cardiff
3       Edinburgh
4       Belfast
______________________________________

... just as it should. So either manpages are wrong about "-n" or you have
overlooked something.

thank you for your hard work,
Peter.
