Bug Description

$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
Release: 16.04
$ apt-cache policy dpkg-sig
dpkg-sig:
  Installed: 0.13.1+nmu2
  Candidate: 0.13.1+nmu2
  Version table:
 *** 0.13.1+nmu2 500

        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
$ dpkg-sig --help | grep gpgoptions
 -g,--gpgoptions <GPG_OPTIONS> DANGEROUS: Specify custom gpg options.
$ dpkg-sig --gpgoptions
Unknown option: gpgoptions
$ dpkg-sig --gpg-options
Option gpg-options requires an argument

As you can see, the "--gpg-options" is documented as "--gpgoptions" in the help message and in the manual page. It should be made consistent with the documentation (either fixing the command name or the documentation, whatever is best).
