[xml/sgml-pkgs] Bug#391609: sgml-base: please don't make update-catalog --version exit with an error

Package: sgml-base
Version: 1.26
Severity: wishlist

   The update-catalog options --version and --help exit with an error code,
while nothing actually went wrong. This is annoying when trying to check
for the availability of tools using the "if binary --version >/dev/null"
shell construct.
