|$ grep -rnwP '(inputs.* ._)' -A 20 gnu/packages/_.scm grep: Perl
matching not supported in a --disable-perl-regexp build ^ Expecting this
to work< but perl dependency is only defined for build-time and the
package lacks option to include Perl on demand |

This seems to happen with any "grep -D" on my side, similar to
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/66753 .

  $ echo AAA | grep -P AA
  grep: Perl matching not supported in a --disable-perl-regexp build
  $ echo AAA | grep AA
  AAA

(in my case, trying out fasd in fish

Any hint for what's going on?
