Hello,

I am going to start changing passwd-ng utils from using getopts to argp. I was dumping --help from all of the programs last night and got some strange output for lsuser and lsgroup.

ls{user | group} --help yields:
'access()' failed; No such file or directory. Aborting.

First question is: --help shouldn't even attempt to execute any code but just dump usage and options correct?

Aside from that I will try to look into what this error is. This is on a GNU/Hurd machine so maybe I need to try it on a GNU/Linux box.

Thanks,
