Upstream patches were proposed in
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=47264 , and they've been
merged upstream. The next upstream grep release, whenever that is,
should allow this debian bug to be closed.
Package: grep
Version: 3.1-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream
grep currently uses libpcre.so.3 (pcre3) for its -P option. That library
is deprecated in favour of libpcre2-8.so.0 (and its 16-bit equivalent, but
I think the 8-bit flavour is the one you'd want); please consider switching
to that one
