Probably the same issue as described here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1161832 http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=18266 In Mageia 5, "grep -P" now complains when it encounters a binary file, exiting with this error message: "grep: invalid UTF-8 byte sequence in input" This was working fine in Mageia 4.

Hi, I tested the new grep and it works under a Mageia 5 64 bits KDE installation. The procedure I followed is: 1) Test the old grep for the bug. The bug is presented 2) Install grep-2.20-4.1.mga5.x86_64.rpm 3) Run the same command as in 1. It works perfectly. I also run some scripts that make use of grep and they worked well with the new grep.

And now I tested it in a 32 bits system using the same procedure and the bug is gone too.
Perfect, thanks again!
