Hi,

today i noticed a difference between the description of the -l switch in
"tar --help" and tar's manpage. The manpage still says:

[ -l, --one-file-system ] 
and
       -l, --one-file-system stay in local file system when creating an archive

while the online help "tar --help" states the actual behaviour:

  -l, --check-links    print a message if not all links are dumped
  --one-file-system    stay in local file system when creating archive

Architecture is gentoo, version info is app-arch/tar-1.16-r2

Cheers,
        Bernd
