Help messages are different for `beet --help` and `beet help` #391

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

$ beet --help
Usage:
  beet [OPTION...] - GStreamer initialization

Help Options:
  -h, --help                        Show help options
  --help-all                        Show all help options
  --help-gst                        Show GStreamer Options

$ beet help
Usage: 
  beet COMMAND [ARGS...]
  beet help COMMAND

Options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -l LIBPATH, --library=LIBPATH
                        library database file to use
  -d DIRECTORY, --directory=DIRECTORY
                        destination music directory
  -v, --verbose         print debugging information

Commands:
  fields            show fields available for queries and format strings
  import (imp, im)  import new music
  [etc.]

Surely these should be the same messages? Especially since most unix-ey people 
will try `beet --help` before `beet help`.

This is a bug in python-gstreamer. If you disable the replaygain plugin, which 
imports python-gstreamer, you won't see this behavior. Looks like this is a 
longstanding bug in those bindings:
