Bug#294291: ssh-add program help has incorrect command line described
Package: ssh
Version: 1:3.8.1p1-8.sarge.4
Severity: minor
The man page for ssh-add says:
ssh-add [-lLdDxXc] [-t life] [file ...]
Runnign $ssh-add -? gives:
ssh-add: illegal option -- ?

Options:

The usage should mention that you can specify files for public keys
without any option.
