Subject: bug in vacuumlo (postgreSQL-7.3)?

Hi,

I'm sorry if this has already been reported.  (I had no luck searching the
postgreSQL archives).

I have just installed postgreSQL-7.3, and ran into some problems with
vacuumlo.  The README file lists you as the author, so I am writing to you
with regards to this problem: when I try to run

     vacuumlo mydatabase

it always complains that

   vacuumlo: missing required argument: database name

It appears that the problem is in the statement (in vacuumlo.c)

   if (optind >= argc - 1)

which really should be

   if (optind > argc - 1)

Making this change fixed the problem for me.

Best Regards,

Sidney Li
