sed 4.1.5


From: Tomaž Slivnik
Subject: sed 4.1.5

Sed on Mac OS X (I assume therefore also FreeBSD sed) does not support supplying the "a" command on the sed command line via "-e" - at least not in the way Gnu sed 4.1.5 configure scripts does it. Thus, trying to build Gnu sed 4.1.5 on such systems fails during "./ configure".

I enclose a patch to get around this problem by first recording the script to a temporary file and then executing it via "sed -f".

This should work with all versions of sed, including Mac OS X/Darwin/ FreeBSD sed.

Yours sincerely,

Tomaž Slivnik
