Having a broken zgrep makes many scripts unusable and breaks things. It should be fixed in Stable too. It most probably won't be, because this is not a critical bug [in the gzip package] which can lead to data loss, data corruption, or an overly broken system.

Setting /bin/sh to point to bash would probably fix your problem with zgrep. Cheers, Julien Cristau signature.asc Description: Digital signature
