Hi Dan,
I have no idea why it work on one machine and not another. Perhaps
my guess as to the cause is all wet. Please give it a try and let me know.
If it works, great if not, perhaps one of the files in questions has other
characters embedded in it that is messing up the grep -v.
All of my tests with grep -v and piping worked exactly as I expected.
Also, did you see my message about the need for YDL 2.0 to release
a new zlib rpm? The old version was not properly built with -fPIC
(which I found out the hard way via a long debugging session
working with the OpenOffice 638 which is integrated with Mozilla).
The mozilla components which linked to zlib failed to be properly
loaded because of the lack of the position independent code switch
(PIC) being used to build libz.so.
Take care,
Kevin
