No need to attach Koji logs here. I have no idea whether this is a glibc issue (regex) or something else. Patches are welcome.
Looks like glibc has changed to make RE_SYNTAX_EGREP and RE_SYNTAX_POSIX_EGREP the same: /* POSIX grep -E behavior is no longer incompatible with GNU. */ # define RE_SYNTAX_POSIX_EGREP \ RE_SYNTAX_EGREP Filed upstream BibTool issue. Quick hack would be to remove one of the cases (for rawhide or later only).
Thanks for the hints and the upstream report. Quick fix is in rawhide now.
