Nothing breaks. There is no objection; in fact, the Ubuntu Technical Board explicitly said this was OK: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grep/+bug/15051/comments/23 The only thing which is holding back this change is that it has not found its way to an Ubuntu developer with the time, ability and willingness to effect the change: this is a problem of resources, not of policy. -- - mdz -- grep -P is not supported https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/15051 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
