Package: gnome-settings-daemon
Version: 3.8.5-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Not sure whether the problem here is an inaccurate man page, or broken option.
The Changelog and NEWS of the source do refer to an option '--no-daemon' - so
it existed at some point.
man gnome-settings-daemon
--no-daemon
Do not detach the daemon process from its controlling terminal
$ gnome-settings-daemon --no-daemon
** (gnome-settings-daemon:6733): WARNING **: Unknown option --no-daemon
