System name: kalgan
Type and version: RedHat Linux-Athena 4.0.0 with 2.0.24 kernel
Display type: linux
What were you trying to do?
Get blanche to report when it fails so that it can be
used in scripts (for example, for adding to users
to lists and sending out mail iff the add completes).
What's wrong:
blanche exits with a zero exit status on failure
What should have happened:
blanche should exit with a non-zero exit status on failure
(and with a zero exit status on success)
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
