Bug#1246: ps man page does not agree with implementation



Package: procps
Version: 0.97-4

man ps does not mention the 'g' option.

    sfere:richard$ ps g
      PID TTY STAT  TIME COMMAND
     4303 pp0 S     0:03 -bash
     4319 pp1 S     0:00 (emacsserver)
     4320 pp1 S     0:00 (emacsserver)
     4321 pp1 S     0:00 (emacsserver)
     4688 pp2 SW    0:00 (bash)
     4791 pp0 R     0:00 ps g
    sfere:richard$ ps z
    usage:  ps -acehjlnrsSuvwx{t<tty>|#|O[-]u[-]U..} \
               --sort:[-]key1,[-]key2,...
               --help gives you this message
    sfere:richard$

The g option should be mentioned in the man page as an option ignored
for compatibility and should describe its function on other systems.
