Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/1375

Ubuntu 16.04, healthy installation, all else works except --output option.

Opening SSH session as user that has login shell set to firejail. Works no problem until I specify --output

login.users file resembles the following

user: --quiet --profile=/usr/local/etc/firejail/login.local --shell=/bin/bash --overlay-tmpfs --output=/var/log/firejail/firejail.log

Result is...

Error: invalid --output=/var/log/firejail/firejail.log command line option
Connection to 10.20.0.102 closed.

I've tried with relative path, different filenames, etc, to no avail. Am I holding it wrong?
