How to get rid of `grep: warning: GREP_OPTIONS is deprecated; please use an alias or script`?


I have zsh + zprezto installed on my Arch linux. Every time I open the console the annoying warning is being displayed:

grep: warning: GREP_OPTIONS is deprecated; please use an alias or script

Following the instructions in [SOLVED] grep: warning: GREP_OPTIONS is deprecated doesn't help. How can I get rid of this warning?


Solution

  • The following setting in ~/.zpreztorc caused the annoying warning message to be displayed:

    zstyle ':prezto:*:*' color 'yes'
    

    I just commented it out and it's fine now. The warning disappeared.
