Package: xinput
Version: 1.6.2-1+b1
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/share/man/man1/xinput.1.gz

Man page lists each option like "--this".
But Usage message just lists them like "this".
Try "xinput --help" to see them.

Both work, AFAIK, so this is just an inconsistency, not actually wrong?

Cheers,

But neither even mention the status of the other. It is just like two
different worlds. Schizophrenia.
