Description of problem: texlive contains shell scripts that use 'grep' and 'awk', for example: /usr/bin/texhash /usr/bin/texconfig /usr/bin/updmap But the package texlive doesn't depend on sed nor awk. It causes error messages in some cases: ... Installing : texlive-2007-56.el6.s390x 87/101 Installing : texlive-dvips-2007-56.el6.s390x 88/101 ...
