Greetings, All!
This has been plaguing me for several years, but only now I got to test it
more thoroughly.
Shame on me.
$ /usr/bin/getopt --options '+H' --shell sh --name x -- -d
getopt: unknown option -- d
Expected output:
x: unknown option -- d
$ /usr/bin/getopt -V
getopt from util-linux 2.25.2
Poked around,
getopt from 2.20.1, 2.27.1, 2.31.1 and (reportedly)2.33 works as expected.
Is there a chance for an update?
