[Pkg-ltsp-devel] Bug#385899: ltsp-build-client: Unrecognized
`--root' option and manpage update

Package: ltsp
Version: 0.93debian1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
According to the ltsp-build-client(8) manpage, the option to set the
default path for the ltsp chroot is --root, but that option doesn't seem
to exist anymore and --base is used instead.
While I was looking at the manpage, I also noticed that there are other
undocumented options (see --help vs manpage). The following options are
missing in the manpage:
* accept-unsigned-packages
* config
* debug
* early-mirror
* prompt-rootpass
Since I don't want to report yet another bug for the manpage (see
#385885), I have attached a patch that fixes --root and includes all
these options with the minimal description from --help. Note that I
tried to add the options by order of importance since I failed to see
any previously established order. A review from someone who knows the
options better would be appreciated.
Thank you.
