#8764: Usage of `sed' in GHC build system (Solaris build failure). ----------------------------------------+--------------------------- Reporter: kgardas | Owner: Type: bug | Status: patch Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Build System | Version: 7.9 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Solaris | Architecture: x86 Type of failure: Building GHC failed | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: ----------------------------------------+--------------------------- Comment (by maeder): awk is currently not used for building (see attached log file of #8781) and maybe awk is not always GNU awk, too. (But GNU awk is detected by configure.) In any case, I think, this sed script should be more comprehensible for the open source community. Maybe splitting this into several sed calls would do the same job. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8764#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
