Summary     : The GNU versions of grep pattern matching utilities.
Description :
The GNU versions of commonly used grep utilities.  Grep searches

include grep, egrep and fgrep.

You should install grep on your system, because it is a very useful
utility for searching through text.

They are updates for testing, before they are officially released.
With grep, for instance, the speed improvement patch is sufficiently
invasive that it might cause problems (it has before, but bugs have
been fixed since then).

They're test updates, once they go through whatever testing is deemed appropriate,
they'll graduate to be full fledged updates.
