app-admin/localepurge will remove files without confirmation when run with "--help". The copyright file claims that the code is copyright under the GNU Public License. According to the GNU standard for command line interfaces (http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Command_002dLine-Interfaces.html), all programs should provide at least --help and --verison. I believe that any program that may make irreversable changes to your system should honor these flags, and even more appropriately, provide a confirmation prompt ("Are you sure?") Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. execute "localepurge --help". Watch files be deleted. Actual Results: No help displayed. Files deleted. Expected Results: Display usage/help message. Version: app-admin/localepurge-0.2-r1
if you execute "localepurge" without or with any parameter you will prompt with a message about you need to configure "/etc/locale.nopurge" the isntruccions are in this file. If you dont edit this file localepurge cannot delete files :) So i will add a --help(-h), --version for you. regards
now in cvs :)
