Details:

I'm trying to install grep-2.5.3 on LynxOS but configure thinks that grep
provided by LynxOS is not good enough. Is there workaround for this?

address@hidden ~/tmp/grep-2.5.3 $ ./configure
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
/users/osa/tmp/grep-2.5.3/missing: /users/osa/tmp/grep-2.5.3/missing: No such
file or directory
configure: WARNING: `missing' script is too old or missing
checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... ./install-sh -c -d
checking for gawk... gawk

...

checking for grep that handles long lines and -e... configure: error: no
acceptable grep could be found in
/users/osa/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/etc:/net:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin/radstone:.:/bin/radstone:.:/usr/xpg4/bin
o

Regards,
Olli
