Bug#468907: jackd: -Z option described in man page does not exist



Package: jackd
Version: 0.109.2-1
Severity: minor

The man page for jackd reads:

       -Z, --nozombies
              Prevent JACK from ever kicking out clients because they
              were too slow.  This cancels the effect any specified
              timeout value, but JACK and its clients are still
              subject to the supervision of the watchdog thread or its
              equivalent.

However, if I try to use the short form of this option:

  $ jackd -Z -d alsa
  Unknown option character Z
  jackd 0.109.2
  [help message]

Using the long form lets jackd start:

  $ jackd --nozombies -d alsa
  jackd 0.109.2
  [starts normally]
