Description Kjartan Maraas 2010-09-26 19:19:22 UTC
Description of problem:

Looks like the new version of grep(1) in F14 broke jw or exposed a bug in it at least. I saw an error message while building fontconfig which complained about :[space]: having to be :[[space]]: and found the following in the NEWS file from grep-2.7:

** New features

  grep now diagnoses (and fails with exit status 2) commonly mistyped
  regular expression like [:space:], [:digit:], etc.  Before, those were
  silently interpreted as [ac:eps] and [dgit:] respectively.  Virtually
  all who make that class of mistake should have used [[:space:]] or
  [[:digit:]].  This new behavior is disabled when the POSIXLY_CORRECT
  environment variable is set.

jw should probably be fixed to comply with this change.

Small typo there - it should be [:space:] and [[:space:]] like in the NEWS file of course.

Comment 2 Ondrej Vasik 2010-09-26 20:22:42 UTC
Thanks for report...

Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2010-09-27 19:06:02 UTC
Can we get this fixed quickly ? This affects a lot of builds (which have docbook based docs)

Ok, will build the fixed package today (actually I planned to do that tomorrow since we have public holiday here).
