Hi,

So do you suggest replacing /usr/bin/sed by gnu sed? Would rather not mess with the base installation, and why not place a test in configure and require a gnu sed (such as /opt/local/bin/gnused from dp) set as SED in the environment? This is rather nasty coz it installs silently without errors this way and takes quite some research to figure out...

Daniel,

I have built octave many times under Mac OS X/Darwin (with out DF or Fink). The one or two time that I tried on a machine without GNU sed, it failed. I consider gsed a perquisite under DP.

Yes,

I suppose thats the most portable way then, but at least there should be a configure test for this then, or a test for gnused as installed by darwinports.

Daniel,

Are you using Apple's sed?

Try GNU sed.
