In the emerge(1) man page, the following can be seen: --fetchonly (-f) Instead of doing any package building, just perform fetches for all packages (the main package as well as all dependencies). --fetch-all-uri (-f) Instead of doing any package building, just perform fetches for all packages (the main package as well as all dependencies), grabbing all potential files. Both these options have the same short option. I assume that --fetch-all-uri should have an option of "-F", but not certain because I've never used it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. man emerge 2. Look for --fetch-all-uri. ;) Actual Results: I saw -f as the short option. Expected Results: I assume I should have seen -F.

changed to '-F' in cvs, thanks !
