    Problem Report Number 2441
    Submitter's Classification Test Suite problem
    State Resolved
    Resolution Test Suite Deficiency (TSD)
    Problem Resolution ID TSD.X.1268
    Raised 2005-02-02 23:59
    Updated 2005-02-03 14:25
    Published 2005-02-03 14:25
    Product Standard Commands and Utilities V4 (UNIX 03)
    Certification Program The Open Brand certification program
    Test Suite VSC version 5.2.6
    Test Identification POSIX.upe/who 1001
    Specification Shell and Utilities Issue 6
    Problem Summary The -r option is omitted from the list of options compared to -a
    Problem Text The description of the -a option in SUSv3 states:

    -a
    Process the implementation-defined database or named file with the -b,
    -d, -l, -p, -r, -t, -T and -u options turned on.

    The test omits the -r option. From tp1001:

    # Execute "who -a"
    ExecuteCommand "$cmd -a" $inputFile $stdoutFileA $stderrFile
    returnStatusA=$?

    # Execute "who -b -d -l -p -t -T -u"
    ExecuteCommand "$cmd -b -d -l -p -t -T -u" \
    $inputFile $stdoutFileB $stderrFile
    returnStatusB=$?


    Our version of 'who' correctly uses the '-r' flag whose output in the
    last line, causes the test to fail.
    Test Output /tset/POSIX.upe/who/who.ex 1001 Failed

    Test Information:
    Assertion #1001 (C): Check that who -a is the same as who -b -d
    -l -p
    -t -T -u

    *ERROR - command produced invalid number of fields: 3 7
