            Bug ID: 18719
           Summary: argp_help (): broken formatting of option descriptions
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: simon at keinstein dot org

  Target Milestone: ---

The formatting of option descriptions gets broken if the length of the
formatted output becomes too long.

Example1:

#include <argp.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int
main (int argc, char **argv)
{
  struct argp_option options[] = {
    {"option", 'o', NULL, 0, "description:\n1\n2\n3\n4\n5\n6"},
    NULL
  };

  struct argp argp = {options};

  argp_help (&argp, stdout, ARGP_HELP_LONG, "argp-bug1");

  return 0;
}

output:
                               -o, --option               description:
                             1
                             2
                             3
                             4
                             5
6

expected output:
  -o, --option               description:
                             1
                             2
                             3
                             4
                             5
                             6
