And by the way, 2.5.1 source distribution is not downloadable at the moment, and it's in this state for about a year already (I believe since the ftp.gnu.org was root compromised). At least it was not downloadable a few months ago when I last checked. It also looks like a dead project, but I may be mistaken: http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/grep/grep/src/ Cheers, -- Ruslan Ermilov ru@FreeBSD.org FreeBSD committer
