Description

What happened:

grype config prints this section:

search:
# selection of layers to analyze, options=[squashed all-layers] (env: GRYPE_SEARCH_SCOPE)
scope: 'squashed'

# search within archives that do contain a file index to search against (zip)
# note: for now this only applies to the java package cataloger (env: GRYPE_SEARCH_UNINDEXED_ARCHIVES)
unindexed-archives: false

# search within archives that do not contain a file index to search against (tar, tar.gz, tar.bz2, etc)
# note: enabling this may result in a performance impact since all discovered compressed tars will be decompressed
# note: for now this only applies to the java package cataloger (env: GRYPE_SEARCH_INDEXED_ARCHIVES)
indexed-archives: true

What you expected to happen:

the following section instead:

search:
# selection of layers to analyze, options=[squashed all-layers] (env: GRYPE_SEARCH_SCOPE)
scope: 'squashed'

# search within archives that do not contain a file index to search against (tar, tar.gz, tar.bz2, etc)
# note: enabling this may result in a performance impact since all discovered compressed tars will be decompressed
# note: for now this only applies to the java package cataloger (env: GRYPE_SEARCH_INDEXED_ARCHIVES)
unindexed-archives: false

# search within archives that do contain a file index to search against (zip)
# note: for now this only applies to the java package cataloger (env: GRYPE_SEARCH_UNINDEXED_ARCHIVES)
indexed-archives: true
