Overview
Request 1001674 accepted
- GNU grep 3.8:
* The -P option is now based on PCRE2 instead of the older PCRE
(boo#1201803)
* egrep and fgrep commands, deprecated since release 2.5.3 (2007), now
warn that they are obsolescent and should be replaced by grep -E and
grep -F
* The confusing GREP_COLOR environment variable is now obsolescent
* Regular expressions with stray backslashes now cause warnings
* Regular expressions like [:space:] are now errors even if
POSIXLY_CORRECT is set, since POSIX now allows the GNU behavior
* In locales using UTF-8 encoding, the regular expression '.' no
longer sometimes fails to match Unicode characters
* The -s option no longer suppresses "binary file matches"
messages.

With grep finally moving to pcre2, pcre can be removed from ring0 I suppose.
how is that done?
Factory maintainers would have to do that (and probably verify it in N before).
