Thread: postmaster --help does not show --config-file

Hello

The postmaster command does not list "--config-file" in its help
although that parameter is understood:

 $ /usr/lib/postgresql/9.2/bin/postmaster --help | grep -c config-file
 0

 $ /usr/lib/postgresql/9.2/bin/postmaster
 postgres does not know where to find the server configuration file.
 You must specify the --config-file or -D invocation option or set the
 PGDATA environment variable.

 $ /usr/lib/postgresql/9.2/bin/postmaster --version
 postgres (PostgreSQL) 9.2.2

bye,
