Hi guys,
love your proggy, but found a bug
here's the info you requested to be provided with any bug-report
(:http://www.gnu.org/software/hello/manual/hello.html#Reporting-bugs)
-- version of hello
zapp ~ # hello --version
hello (GNU hello) 2.5
-- hardware and operating system names and version
zapp ~ # uname -a
Linux zapp 2.6.31-gentoo-r10 #2 SMP PREEMPT Tue Apr 6 19:36:30 CEST 2010 i686
Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo CPU L2500 @ 1.83GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
-- expected behaviour:
zapp ~ # hello -n -g moin
+------+
| moin |
+------+
-- description of problem or any erroneaous output:
zapp ~ # hello -n -g moin
moin
-- option to configure
./configure --prefix=/usr --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu
--mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share
--sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --enable-nls
-- anything else I think might be helpfull
For some reason, the ebuild "app-misc/hello" is masked in the gentoo packaging
system. maybe this hints to some bug or incompatibility in general.
We think we already have an idea what is happening: obviously the command-line
parser implemented in hello only honors the last option. we have tried many
different combinations of options, while our assumption held true.
---
greez, moin, and thanks for the beautiful software, looking forward to a quick
fix, or, if that is not possible, at least some kind of a workaround,
