Re: Can't install gnome

I tried to install gnome using macports on my G4-PowerBook running Mac OS X 10.4, but I was not successful (the result is attached below). I sent an email to bonzini@gnu.org (as indicated in the error log), who replied (i) that he is only responsible for gnu sed, not macports and (ii) that macports invokes sed the wrong way. Can anyone help or shed some light on this problem?

Error: reinplace: sed: invalid option -- E

Please don't install GNU sed as "sed" for now (naming it gsed is OK, like the gsed port does). This will be fixed in next version of MacPorts, that should be able to cope with BSD/GNU sed. http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/ticket/12700 --anders
