# 6.13. Grep-2.5.1a

The Grep package contains programs for searching through files.

## 6.13.1. Installation of Grep

Prepare Grep for compilation:

    ./configure --prefix=/tools \
         --build=${CLFS_HOST} --host=${CLFS_TARGET} \
         --disable-perl-regexp

The meaning of the configure options:

`--disable-perl-regexp`

  This ensures that the grep program does not get linked against a Perl Compatible Regular Expression (PCRE) library that may be present on the host but will not be available when building the final system.

Compile the package:

    make

Install the package:

    make install

Details on this package are located in Section 10.32.2, “Contents of Grep.”
