Re: Install from farm issue

[Bruce Steers <bsteers4@xxxxxxxxx>]

I just tried gbc3 with arg -m and it just output the help text but $?
returned 0

I get that printing help is not really an error if i type --help but if
help is printed due to a bad arg should't it return a code?

It would have made this bug show up sooner.
