Hello,

The ghdl man page lists the following commands and options:
Basic commands:

-a Analysis, i.e. ghdl -a file.vhdl

-e Elabortation, i.e. ghdl -e unit_name

-r Run: run the simulation, i.e. ghdl -r unit_name

-s Syntax-check, i.e. ghdl -s file.vhdl

--clean
Clean: remove generated files, i.e. ghdl --clean

-h, --help
Help, i.e. ghdl --help

--version
Version, i.e. ghdl --version


Basic options:

--work=NAME
Name of the WORK library, i.e. ghdl -a --work=foo foo.vhdl

--std=STD
Which VHDL standard (87|93|93c|00|02), i.e. ghdl -a --std=87
old.vhdl

--ieee=VER
Which IEEE library (none|standard|synopsys|mentor), i.e. ghdl -a
--ieee=synopsys broken.vhdl

--no-vital-checks
Disable VITAL restriction checking, i.e. ghdl -a
--no-vital-checks unsupported_vital.vhdl

yet when trying to use the --ieee option, the following errors occur:
/usr/lib/ghdl/bin/ghdl: unknown option '--ieee=synopsis' for command '-a'
rschott@blizzard:~/ce6301/hw1$ ghdl -e --ieee=synopsis mpz.vhdl
/usr/lib/ghdl/bin/ghdl: unknown option '--ieee=synopsis' for command '-e'
rschott@blizzard:~/ce6301/hw1$ ghdl -r --ieee=synopsis mpz.vhdl
/usr/lib/ghdl/bin/ghdl: unknown option '--ieee=synopsis' for command '-r'
rschott@blizzard:~/ce6301/hw1$ ghdl -s --ieee=synopsis mpz.vhdl
/usr/lib/ghdl/bin/ghdl: unknown option '--ieee=synopsis' for command '-s'

The above
The other described options work as documented.
I can see from running a dpkg-query --listfiles ghdl that the src and
compiled files to support the options are included with the package.
The executable just does not recognize the option.

Thanks,
Robert Schott

not --ieee=synopsis. Or is it a misspelling in the man page?
