Title:
  grep -r will not search subdirectories

Status in “grep” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  grep -r Esther *.htm

  Typing the above command when positioned in a directory containing
  .htm files with the requested text produces a few lines of output.
  When changing to the next outer directory with cd ..  the same
  command produces no output.  It will not look at subdirectories.

  Ubuntu release 12.10
  version grep 12.12-2
