X-Mailer: bug 3.3.5
Message-Id: <E13jnie-0007Xz-00@brake.usg.tufts.edu>

Package: mhonarc
Version: 2.4.6-2
Severity: wishlist
This one is kind of silly, I guess but - it annoys me.
mhonarc seg faults (and depending on the state of ones ulimit stuff)
dumps core if, during the usage statment, the pager terminates before
finishing.
[sjc@brake sjc]$ mhonarc
Usage: mhonarc [<options>] <mailfolder> ...
[skip] (I hit control see at the --more-- prompt)
-checknoarchive : Check for "no archive" flags in messages
-conlen : Honor Content-Length fields
Segmentation fault
It does this whether I hit cont-c or "q" to tell more to quit. Doesn't
matter. Also...it is using more rather than defaulting to use:
/etc/alternatives/pager
(another nitpick)
imy last nitpick - it shouldn't run a pager at all... it violates the
pricipal of least surprize
(I expect to have usage statments just spit out - thats what everything
else does - its why my terminal has scrollback)
Anyway - if it is to run a pager - it should at least do it correctly.
