Adding to the previous post: This bug does affect Xenial alias 16.04 LTS, at least with typical text files, that contain characters, that belong to my country's standard characters, but are not part of the English standard characters.
I think grep should not be sensitive to such characters, and draw the conclusion, that it is a binary file. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1535458 Title: [15.10 REGRESSION] Randomly wrongly detects files as binary To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grep/+bug/1535458/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
