Package: grep
Version: 2.12-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
regexp quantifiers \< \> \b \B \w \W give wrong results with unicode
words.
example:
$ echo "я" | grep -q "\<я"; echo $?
1
i wrote small test script (see attachm.).
it's result:
\<x x\> \bx x\b x\B \Bx \w \W
b: 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1
я: 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 0
Σ: 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 0
ä: 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 0
