Ah good it is on the desk. Fyi, since you seem to like FreeBSD i posted to FreeBSD.. | freebsd-update: re-edit files if merge conflict markers remain ... |+ if ! egrep -q '^(<<<<<<<|=======|>>>>>>>)(\ ... It is because i have written to postfix-users with the subject "(GNU) egrep is obsolescent" right before i read your commit: ... and Kyle Evans said I'd really prefer not to be annoying about it until we actually plan to deprecate it, and I haven't seen a single call for removing it from FreeBSD. while Warner Losh said I doubt egrep will ever be deprecated. Too many scripts depend on it. And fixing this one is a drop in the bucket. I personally think the warning from gnu-grep is bananas... --steffen | |Der Kragenbaer, The moon bear, |der holt sich munter he cheerfully and one by one |einen nach dem anderen runter wa.ks himself off |(By Robert Gernhardt)
