Description Tanja Roth 2022-01-25 16:59:11 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1195002 +++

(copying from https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1195002#c3)


"options like --clean and --list or -l only worked due to the way Ruby parses option, but they weren't officially supported or documented. For -l (reported in https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1195006) I agree that this would be a sensible decision to add, but in regards to --clean I advise to adjust the test cases to use the documented --cleanup.

To avoid that user run into any kind of trouble, in case they adopted this wrong parameter, we might want to think about documenting this in the Release Notes."

As requested by Tanja adding a comment here, that this needs to be documented in the RN for Public Beta.

Meanwhile a --clean and -l parameter has been added to the next SUSEConnect-ng update, but we should still mention that abbreviations not mentioned in 'SUSEConnect --help' are not supported.
