The latest version of grep claims the egrep is now obsolete so the build now contains warnings that look like: egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E fix this using "grep -E" instead.

sed -i "s/egrep/grep -E/g" `grep egrep -rwl tools/testing/selftests/net`

Here are the steps to install the latest grep:

wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grep/grep-3.8.tar.gz tar xf grep-3.8.tar.gz cd grep-3.8 && ./configure && make sudo make install export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
