Package: zenity
Version: 3.2.0-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream


zenity --list 1 2 3 --4
should display a list like this:

1 2
3 --4

but reports "This option is not available. Please see --help for all possible usages." instead.
Thus, it is not possible to have items with leading -- in the list.
