[gentoo-user] /usr/bin/test doesn't seem to do anything

[Robert Persson]

Someone was kind enough to send me a script that calls /usr/bin/test. When the 
script didn't work I realised that test was behaving strangely. Basically it 
doesn't seem to return anything.

For instance "test -f /usr/bin/test" doesn't display any output.

Nor does "test --help".

Nor "test --version".

The version I am using is from sys-apps/coreutils-5.2.1-r6 .

It's very hard to do a google search for anything to do with troubleshooting a 
program called "test". Anyone know what is going on here?

Thanks
Robert
