Bug#484106: /usr/bin/apt-ftparchive: should indicate failure by return value

["Michal Suchanek" <michal.suchanek@ruk.cuni.cz>]

Package: apt-utils
Version: 0.7.11
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/apt-ftparchive


With some combinations of incorrect parameters apt-ftparchive prints
usage on stdout and returns success. This is bad for use in scripts.
