#41164: octave-devel @3.6.4_9 "sed: RE error: illegal byte sequence" on 10.8 -----------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: dale+macports@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.2.1 Keywords: | Port: octave-devel -----------------------------+-------------------------------- I'm on OS X 10.8.5. While building octave-devel I ran into the "sed: RE error: illegal byte sequence" error while creating `scripts/help/PKG_ADD-t`, which caused the build phase to fail. Sorry I don't have the log file handy. There's already [https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/math /octave-devel/Portfile#L119 a section in octave-devel's `Portfile` to set LANG=C]. The comment says that it's for "10.8+" but the test there is `if {${os.major} > 12}`. Should that be `>= 12` instead of `> 12`? I made that change locally and then I was able to successfully install octave- devel.
