i notice grep behaving differently on x86 vs. amd64: on x86, grep works correctly: > raoul@raoul ~ $ echo '1303141571.M26770P15859.m01S=1884W=1934:2S' | egrep > '[a-z]$' ^ no match because there is no [a-z] at the end of the line! > raoul@raoul ~ $ egrep --version > GNU grep 2.6.3 > > Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc. > License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html> > This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it. > There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. > > raoul@raoul ~ $ uname -a > Linux raoul.bhatia.at 2.6.32-5-vserver-amd64 #1 SMP Mon Mar 7 23:14:47 UTC > 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux > raoul@raoul ~ $ cat /etc/debian_version > 6.0.1 on amd64, grep does not correctly wrong: > root@m01 ~ # echo '1303141571.M26770P15859.m01S=1884W=1934:2S' | egrep > '[a-z]$' > 1303141571.M26770P15859.m01S=1884W=1934:2S ^ this does not match the pattern! > root@m01 ~ # egrep --version > GNU grep 2.6.3 > > Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc. > License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html> > This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it. > There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. > > root@m01 ~ # uname -a > Linux m01 2.6.32-5-amd64 #1 SMP Sat Oct 30 14:18:21 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux > root@m01 ~ # cat /etc/debian_version > 6.0.1 grep 2.5.3 on debian 5.0.8 (lenny) does not show this behavior: > root@db01 ~ # echo '1303141571.M26770P15859.m01S=1884W=1934:2S' | egrep > '[a-z]$' > root@db01 ~ # egrep --version > GNU grep 2.5.3 > > Copyright (C) 1988, 1992-2002, 2004, 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc. > This is free software; see the source for copying conditions.
