I am a new fink user, (with my primary goal for installing fink of
installing po4a on mac). I have followed the installation instructions
accurately (to the best of my knowledge) and have attempted all
troubleshooting methods suggested to me (fink selfupdate, read FAQ, etc.)
to no avail.
However, it looks to me like the error is due to sed failing. The relevant
part of the log:
sed -i '5iBEGIN \{ push\(\@INC, "\/sm\/lib\/perl5"\) \};' scripts/msgsearch
scripts/msguntypot po4a po4a-gettextize po4a-normalize po4a-translate
po4a-updatepo
sed: 1: "scripts/msgsearch": unterminated substitute in regular expression
I read the FAQ about 'sed' and I do not have an usage of 'echo' in my
profile anywhere.
If relevant, I have attempted to install po4a from the source, but I was
not successful in porting it to mac. (Hence my installation of fink.) I
don't think my previous attempts produced any harmful results, but I
thought I would mention it just in case.
Below is the full command line output:
