Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-pkg (Nobody)
<pkg@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback:
Bug 288702: ports-mgmt/pkg v2.2.2, pkg-fetch synopsis missing '-o' option
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=288702



--- Description ---
The long-option variant describes 'destdir' (using '--output'):
pkg	fetch	 [--repository	   reponame]	 [--output    destdir]
[--{dependencies,quiet,no-repo-update,yes}]

However, the first synopsis entry (short-option), 
does not describe 'destdir':
-pkg fetch [-r reponame] [-dqUy] [-Cgix] pkg-name	[...]
+pkg fetch [-r reponame] [-o destdir] [-dqUy] [-Cgix] pkg-name	[...]

( The previous man page versions of pkg-fetch(8) also 
seem to be incomplete in this respect. )

Using 14.3-RELEASE and latest, and:
[1-0] # date -u; pkg -v

2.2.2
