pkg-1.1.4_1
>Description:
The usage message emitted by pkg(1), while it agrees with the manual
page, is wrong.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run "pkg info -o" without specifying a package name.
>Fix:
The synopsis should read:
pkg info [-AbBdDeEfklopqrRs] [-a | [-g | -x | -O] [-i] pkg-name | -F pkg-file]
Not sure how to write that in -mdoc macros. As it currently reads,
the synopsis implies that none of the options are available when -a is
specified, and does not show that -g, -x, and -O are mutually
exclusive.
