Re: Issue to build GCL on Mandrake linux distro (was: Re: [Gcl-devel] Re: Free and Open Source Axiom exists)

   Hello Paul

   I'm CC:-ing gcl-devel@ as your issue looks more a GCL issue than an
   Axiom one: GCL is not yet compiled. ;)

   Looking at your build, you have those strange warnings:
   > sed: file /tmp/csMec4jd/subs-1.sed line 32: Unterminated `s' command
   > config.status: creating windows/gcl.iss
   > sed: file /tmp/csMec4jd/subs-1.sed line 32: Unterminated `s' command
   > config.status: creating windows/gcl.ansi.iss
   > sed: file /tmp/csMec4jd/subs-1.sed line 32: Unterminated `s' command
   > config.status: creating windows/install.ansi.lsp
   > sed: file /tmp/csMec4jd/subs-1.sed line 32: Unterminated `s' command
   > config.status: creating windows/install.lsp
   > sed: file /tmp/csMec4jd/subs-1.sed line 32: Unterminated `s' command
   > config.status: creating h/gclincl.h

   It might be the culprit. I've check in my own logs and I don't have such
   warnings. What is the version of sed used on the Mandrake (sed
   --version)? 

Mandrake 9.0 contains sed 3.02. I've installed version 4.0.7 but it does
not seem to solve the problem.

   Could you get a copy of the file /tmp/csMec4jd/subs-1.sed?

Unfortunately it was removed by "make". Is there a way to keep temporary
files when an error occurs?
