Using grep "devel\s\+3:" to find at least one whitspace is not portable on all grep versions: Not all grep versions understand "\s" as a "whitespace". Use a literal TAB followed by SPACE like this [ ] instead. The + as a qualifier for "one or more" is not a basic regular expression: use egrep instead of grep.
