Description Alexandre Rostovtsev 2012-08-08 18:15:38 UTC 
(as reported at https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=409811)

rarian-sk-update calles getopt with -u/-n/-o/-- options which are supported by the util-linux getopt(1) implementation. Unfortunately, these options are not supported by the system getopt(1) on BSDs and Darwin. On such systems, the user will want to be able to choose a non-default getopt(1), for example getopt-long.
