[Bug 1192168] Re: zgrep does not correctly pass short options to grep

[Brian Murray]

The -h option works in Saucy, which will become Ubuntu 13.10, so I am
marking this bug as Fix Released and have opened a task for Precise.

Title:
  zgrep does not correctly pass short options to grep

Status in “gzip” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “gzip” source package in Precise:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  zgrep --help / man zgrep say that “OPTIONs are the same as for
  'grep'.” and “All options specified are passed directly to grep.”,
  respectively. Testing shows that this does not work with the -h
  option:

  -h, --no-filename
                Suppress  the  prefixing  of file names on output.  This is the default when there is only one file (or
                only standard input) to search.
