Updated grep package speeds UTF-8 searching

An updated grep package resolving a speed-related problem is now available.

The grep program is a utility for searching through text files.

A deficiency has been identified in grep's search algorithm. The algorithm
was found to be extremely inefficient when searching UTF-8 encoded text.
The source of the inefficiency has been identified and fixed.

UTF-8 is a text encoding method for multibyte representations of
characters, and is the default encoding on Red Hat Linux.

All users are advised to upgrade to these erratum packages, which resolve
this issue.

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are
not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you
can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the
desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
