Topic

Updated grep packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 6.

Description

The grep utility searches through textual input for lines that contain a match
to a specified pattern and then prints the matching lines. The GNU grep
utilities include grep, egrep, and fgrep.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, the "egrep" and "fgrep" shell wrappers were incorrectly displayed

as "grep" and not as "egrep" and "fgrep" respectively in the output of the "ps"
command. This update replaces "egrep" and "fgrep" shell wrappers by symlinks,
and "egrep" and "fgrep" are now listed correctly in the "ps" output.
(BZ#1263252)

Users of grep are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this
bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.

For details on how to apply this update, refer to:
