#22604 [NEW]: Egrep/'grep -E' usage not working

From: j-devenish at users dot sourceforge dot net Operating system: Solaris PHP version: 4CVS-2003-03-08 (stable) PHP Bug Type: *Configuration Issues Bug description: Egrep/'grep -E' usage not working (1) There are multiple instances of hard-coded egrep/'grep -E'. egrep is deprecated, but unfortunately grep with '-E' is not always available with people's default paths under Solaris. So, hard-coded 'grep -E' can cause configuration error messages under Solaris (esp HEAD, maybe not so much with PHP_4_3). (2) AC_PROG_CPP appears to do an egrep/'grep -E' test and defines the variable $EGREP. (But this is after PHP_INIT_BUILD_SYSTEM, which itself currently uses extended regex.) (3) perhaps, sometimes, bare 'grep' may be sufficient. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=22604&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22604&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22604&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22604&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22604&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22604&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22604&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22604&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22604&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22604&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22604&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22604&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22604&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22604&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22604&r=gnused
