Subject: RFA: fix CLI/9591 (pagination and --batch)
Date: Fri, 05 Mar 2010 19:58:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3k4tqv8w0.fsf@fleche.redhat.com> (raw)
This needs a doc review.
This patch disables pagination when --batch is given. As discussed on
this list earlier, the current situation is strange; pagination only
really makes sense interactively.
Built and regtested on x86-64 (compile farm).
