Package: grub-common
Version: 2.12-9
Severity: minor
File: /usr/bin/grub-file

Dear Maintainer,
This is quite a minor bug, but running `grub-file --version` returns the version information and also `error: unknown argument `--version'.`
What should happen is that the error should not appear.
Also, `grub-file --help` does not list `--version` as an option, as well as the manpage.
Sincerely,
Huey Chen
