    Paul, please take a look. You added the code in commit 62972d9.

    This particular grep statement is used to validate the tzpath variable. Apparently it is easy enough to achieve what I was going for using vanilla grep with no options, so I've created #68388 to fix the issue.

    I notice that there are other uses of -q and -E in the configure file, but presumably those are on more optional paths.

    @martin.wheatley.home: Can you check to see if #68388 fixes your issue?

    Also, can you clarify whether this happens with a plain ./configure invocation, or are you specifying ./configure --with-tzpath='/usr/share/zoneinfo:/usr/lib/zoneinfo:/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo:/etc/zoneinfo' yourself?

    I'll do the test

    it happens with a plain ./configure

    Many thanks
