[CentOS] Maybe OT : strange wildcard behaviour

Mon Oct 25 20:38:15 UTC 2010

I'm getting strange stuff too:

$ /bin/ls -l radiolab101510--Fate-and-Fortune.mp3
-rw-r--r-- 1 zl zl 57144527 Sep 30 16:10
radiolab101510--Fate-and-Fortune.mp3
$ /bin/ls -l *.mp3
/bin/ls: unrecognized option `--Fate-and-Fortune.mp3'
Try `/bin/ls --help' for more information.
$ rpm -qf /bin/ls
coreutils-5.97-23.el5_4.2

(Output of the first command was wrapped by my mailer.)
