8 Due to an unfortunate number of bugs and performance problems in
9 GNU grep 2.5.1, various patches from The Fedora Project have been applied.
10 These patches can be extracted from the SRPM package available at:
12 http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/test/
13 3.92/SRPMS/grep-2.5.1-48.src.rpm
15 The following patches have been applied:
18 grep-2.5.1-bracket.patch
19 grep-2.5.1-color.patch
20 grep-2.5.1-dfa-optional.patch
21 grep-2.5.1-egf-speedup.patch
22 grep-2.5.1-fgrep.patch
23 grep-2.5.1-icolor.patch
27 In addition to these, some FreeBSD-specific changes have been made
28 to add bzip2 support, etc.
30 Due to the large number of patches applied, conflicts are likely with
31 future releases. However, most of the patches are either (a) small bug
32 fixes that have been fed upstream, or (b) performance improvements that
33 could be reverted without loss of functionality.
35 It is suggested that those planning to import a newer release of GNU grep
36 should revert all local changes since the 2.5.1 import before proceeding
37 with the newer import.
