[Bug 1553907] Re: fsck man page refers to missing -p option

[Brian Murray]

It is not in the man but it is in fsck's help:

 $ fsck --help
fsck from util-linux 2.27.1
fsck.ext4: invalid option -- 'h'
Usage: fsck.ext4 [-panyrcdfvtDFV] [-b superblock] [-B blocksize]
                [-I inode_buffer_blocks] [-P process_inode_size]
                [-l|-L bad_blocks_file] [-C fd] [-j external_journal]
                [-E extended-options] device

Emergency help:
 -p                   Automatic repair (no questions)

Title:
  fsck man page refers to missing -p option

Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Hello there,

  in the fsck man mage there are references to a '-p' option:
  -s says it must be used in conjunction with -a or p
  -a suggests -p is probably better to use instead of -a

  Anyway, there is no -p option in the man page.
  There is -P but, for what I know, options are case-sensitive so it's not related.
