Bug 238233 – sys-apps/sed-4.1.5-r1 fails its insens test on uclibc

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description René Rhéaume (a.k.a. repzilon, rener) 2008-09-20 21:56:58 UTC]

The insens test input is the following:
Version: 1.2.3
1.2.3

The sed script should extract both version numbers, each on its line, like this:
1.2.3
1.2.3

However, sed-4.1.5-r1 on uclibc extracts only one of the version numbers. 4.1.5-r1 on glibc passes the test as 4.1.5(-r0) on uclibc as well.

The main differences between the r0 and r1 ebuild is the inclusion of the prototypes patch and a test for included-regex. The ebuild was last committed by vapier.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Put test in your FEATURES variable in the /etc/make.conf file of a uclibc development system
2. emerge -1 sed

Actual Results:  
The insens test fails, making the suite failing and emerge dying.

Expected Results:  
sed 4.1.5-r1 is merged into the system.

To manually run the test, use the following command:
LC_ALL=C sed -n -f insens.sed < insens.inp > insens.out
