Package: grep
Version: 3.8-2
Severity: serious

Hi,

the new grep versions issues a warning on stderr:

stderr: /usr/bin/grep: warning: stray \ before -

this causes build failures:

https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/arm64/libtool.html

and also autopkgtest failures:

https://ci.debian.net/data/autopkgtest/unstable/amd64/d/dpkg/26032114/log.gz
https://ci.debian.net/data/autopkgtest/unstable/amd64/c/cjet/26041201/log.gz

The first autopkgtest failure is in libtool which is vendored by a lot
of packages so will probably take a long time to fix.

Could you maybe silence the warning for now?

Should be this one:

https://sources.debian.org/src/grep/3.8-2/lib/dfa.c/#L1564

Cheers Jochen

P.S.: I will send a bug with a patch to the libtool maintainer.
