Title:
  Incorrectly described arguments to kill

Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This new bug reporting process is very confusing to me, so apologies
  if I just filed something useless. All I wanted to do was simply state
  an inaccuracy in the manpage of kill. It describes the argument --list
  for listing available signals, which does not work:

   $ kill --list
   kill: unknown signal: SIG-LIST
   kill: type kill -l for a list of signals

  `kill -l` does work correctly. This bug does not seem to exist in
  upstream util-linux, so perhaps the version in Ubuntu 14.04 is just
  lagging a little. Let me know if more information is required.
