Package: coreutils
Version: 8.5-1
Severity: minor
File: /usr/share/man/man1/test.1.gz


This is a bug report against the man page documebntation for "test"

The man page for /usr/bin/test lists  --help and --version as command-line
options.

As documented this conflics with the 

 test "string"  
 
usage ( eg; if "string" was "--help" ) fortunately the man page appears
to be in error and  --help and --version  are treated as strings to be
tested and produce no display output. the info page does not list
--help or --version.
