I can confirm this in upstream, debian and ubuntu versions, I've added a comment to a debian related report which list other inaccuracies in the man page, I'd suggest waiting for the changes coming from Debian (and from them to go to upstream), since it's not a critical problem. --- Ubuntu Bug Squad volunteer triager http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad
