      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      When output of pcp2openmetrics tool is redirected from the stdout to a file using "-F" command ine parameter, the redirection is ignored and the output goes to stdout anyway.

      Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

      pcp-6.2.1-1.el9

      How reproducible:

      Always

      Steps to reproduce

      1.  Install pcp & pcp-export-pcp2openmetrics packages
      2.  Start pmcd and pmlogger
      3.  Export some metric from an archive to a file 
        pcp2openmetrics -a /var/log/pcp/pmlogger/$(hostname)/ -F /tmp/load.openmetrics 'kernel.all.load'

      Expected results

      The result is written to the /tmp/load.openmetrics file.

      Actual results

      The result is printed on stdout

            Note: The same behavior is observed when running the pcp2openmetrics tool directly towards pmcd:

            # pcp2openmetrics -F /tmp/load.openmetrics 'kernel.all.load'
