Hello Paul,
The solaris box is running fully patched 11.1.
The bug is present in Linux zgrep as well. I can confirm that its present in
RedHat/CentOS 6.2, and ubuntu precice1 which is just a few months old.
It looks like the version you tested is 1.5. When was it released and where
can I
Add Cygwin to the list...
rml@yosemite:z:442> zgrep --version
zgrep (gzip) 1.4
rml@yosemite:tmp:432> mkdir z
rml@yosemite:tmp:433> cd z
rml@yosemite:z:434> echo foo>a
rml@yosemite:z:435> echo foo | gzip -c >b
rml@yosemite:z:436> echo bar>c
rml@yosemite:z:437> zgrep foo *
a:foo
b:foo
rml@yosemite:z

That's, odd, because on the Solaris 11.1 box I have access to, gzgrep is

$ uname -srvmpi
SunOS 5.11 11.1 i86pc i386 i86pc
$ gzgrep --version | head -1
gzgrep (gzip) 1.5
Perhaps there's some patch set your
Thanks for your reply Paul.
I'm no longer involved in the maintenance of the Solaris host on which I tested,
but this is what I see...

SunOS ieng9.ucsd.edu 5.11 11.1 sun4v sparc sun4v Solaris
09:17:44 rml@ieng9:rml:2> ls -l /usr/bin/gzgrep
