[darcs-users] What's wrong with darcs on Solaris-based buildbots?

[Karel Gardas]

Hi Eric,

great! Thanks for this nice work to everybody involved and sorry for not
supporting you by patches.

Yes, zooko's grep is probably GNU grep (he is running Nexenta, ie.
Solaris kernel + GNU binaries). Mine grep is Sun's grep, since I'm
running SXDE 1/08. If you would like to use GNU grep on my system, you
need to use ggrep, see:

karel at silence:~$ grep
Usage: grep -hblcnsviw pattern file . . .
karel at silence:~$ ggrep
Usage: ggrep [OPTION]... PATTERN [FILE]...
Try `ggrep --help' for more information.
karel at silence:~$ ggrep --version
grep (GNU grep) 2.5
