Comment 1 Seemant Kulleen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-08-22 23:15:43 UTC 
do you have sed or supersed installed?
Comment 2 Patrick Kursawe (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-08-23 03:31:14 UTC 
No idea, will have to check it on monday - have no access to the machine today
Comment 3 Maurizio Disimino 2002-08-24 03:36:35 UTC 
rpm-4.0.4-r3 works fine here using sed 3.02.80

Gentoo 1.4 - gcc3.2 - portage .28
Comment 4 Patrick Kursawe (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-08-26 03:12:26 UTC 
Sed was not installed, now it works fine. Looks like it's missing in the
dependencies.

Happy bugfixing,

Patrick

No, this was my fault for trying to make supersed the default sed, and then
people unmerging it.  Sorry about that.
