On the basis that it gives the impression that the requested action has/will fail, when it hasn't/won't, misleading is a fair description, however undesirable may be apt.

This looks as though it will work. Not sure how it will be viewed in terms of an SCM creating the link during installation.

Hi SamK
Several other scripts in that directory call grep, but this is the only one that prepends a path onto it. The only
grep options I noticed being used in those scripts was -v, -i, -q, -s, and -c, which busybox grep supports.
Creating the link via the SCM is definitely not the right thing to do.
Jason W:
It appears the issue would go away if grep and those other utiliites were available in /apps/mc/localbin when mc was being built, so the scripts would be right. And preferably all build from scratch.
I will do that this week.
Jason W:
For now I fixed the iso9660 script by replacing /usr/local/bin/grep with grep, so the grep in the extension that is in the set path will be used.
