Bug 42538

Summary: 4.7 BROKEN (SED FUNCTION)
Product: Base System Reporter: Steven Earl Smith <SESmith>
Component: i386Assignee: Ceri Davies <ceri>
Status: Closed FIXED    
Severity: Affects Only Me

Description Steven Earl Smith 2002-09-07 23:10:03 UTC 
Numerous ports break on make with option 'sed -- i'  during the make process, therefore do not install.  This includes most of the X11 ports which are unusable (IE. KMail will configure then croak on grabbing of mail)

Fix: 

PRERELEASES really should not be picked up by a cvsup RELENG_4...
How-To-Repeat: clean install of 4.7-pre, port for libmng-1.0.3, try make.  will result in:
test !e /usr/local/include/icms.h || /usr/bin/sed -i.bak -e ...

"SED ILLEGAL OPTION -- i"

I can install this just fine, on a RELENG_4 machine built from
yesterday's sources.  The only thing that I can think of is off-hand is
that your installed sed might be out of date (with respect to the rest
of your system).  What exactly do you mean by "clean install"?  What 
does "which sed" tell you?

4.7-PRERELEASE is the new name given to 4.6-STABLE at the start of the
4.7 code freeze.  It's just a name change.  Please refer to the release
engineering article for more details on how releases, branches, etc. are
named.

Is your sed up-to-date? Apparently not. Update your source, 
cd /usr/src/usr.bin/sed 
make 
make install 
Then try again.
