Package: grep Version: 2.5.3~dfsg-1 Severity: critical Justification: breaks unrelated software
grep -w is completely broken as it does not print hits on separate lines like it should: $ /bin/grep -w p_new *.c archive.c:p_newarchive.c:p_newarchive.c:p_newarchive.c:p_newarchive.c:p_newarchive.c:p_newarray.c:p_newarray.c:p_newblob-iconv.c:p_newbtree.c:p_newbtree.c:p_newconcatbin.c:p_newfarch.c:p_newfifo.c:p_newint_array.c:p_newisndx.c:p_newisndx.c:p_newlog_limit.c:p_newlog_limit.c:p_newlog_limit.c:p_newmem-fifo-pool.c:p_newmmappedfile.c:p_newpaged-index.c:p_newstats-temporal.c:p_newtst-btree.c:p_newtst-isndx.c:p_newxml.c:p_new grep though does the right thing: $ /bin/grep p_new *.c archive.c: head = p_new(archive_head, 1); archive.c: file = p_new(archive_file, 1); archive.c: file->attrs = p_new(archive_file_attr *, file->nb_attrs); [...] This breaks scripts using grep -w and parsing the output very badly. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
