Description Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2005-07-15 00:47:15 UTC
When emerging dev-db/firebird-1.5.1 before the install phase many sed errors
appear.  These are caused by a sed attempting to read a directory.  This can
easily be solved to make a cleaner (e)build output.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge "=dev-db/firefird-1.5.1"
2. watch the ebuild doing it's work, especially right after the install phase
has started
3.

Actual Results:  
many sed errors

Expected Results:  
be a little more cautious with what sed to feed and avoid those errors

small patch made to the ebuild

by telling find only to look for files, sed does not have to try to operate on
directories, which it doesn't know how to operate on.
