I've a test in one of my ports similar to this: $ cat test.txt $TESTTMP/hgcache/master/packs/7bcd2d90b99395ca43172a0dd24e18860b2902f9.histpack $TESTTMP/hgcache/master/packs/dc8f8fdc76690ce27791ce9f53a18da379e50d37.datapack $ cat test.txt | grep ".datapack\|.histpack" $ cat test.txt | ggrep ".datapack\|.histpack" $TESTTMP/hgcache/master/packs/7bcd2d90b99395ca43172a0dd24e18860b2902f9.histpack $TESTTMP/hgcache/master/packs/dc8f8fdc76690ce27791ce9f53a18da379e50d37.datapack
The grep command works with GNU, NetBSD, FreeBSD and BusyBox. It fails on OpenBSD and Solaris 11. I'm suggesting upstream to change the command to "grep -e ".datapack" -e ".histpack"" but I would like to know if this is a bug or we just don't support the | in the grep patterns.
