hello all,

I'm trying to build both the working model (postgres-r) and pgsql-r-v7.2
so that i can test them.  I'm having problems building both.

My environment is:

Mandrake 9.1, gcc 3.2.2, spread-3.17.1.  gcc and all other development
tools are as distributed with Mandrake 9.1 (flex 2.5.4, lex 2.5.4, bison 1.35,
GNU sed 4.0.3, GNU make 3.8, etc).

with postgres-r (the 6.4.2 working model), configure fails with 
the following error:

creating ./config.status
creating GNUmakefile
sed: file conftest.s1 line 33: Unterminated `s' command
creating Makefile.global
sed: file conftest.s1 line 33: Unterminated `s' command
creating backend/port/Makefile
sed: file conftest.s1 line 33: Unterminated `s' command
creating backend/catalog/genbki.sh
[and lots more similar sed errors].

the error in the configure script seems to be due to something here:

 # Support "outfile[:infile[:infile...]]", defaulting infile="outfile.in".
  case "$ac_file" in
  *:*) ac_file_in=`echo "$ac_file"|sed 's%[^:]*:%%'`
       ac_file=`echo "$ac_file"|sed 's%:.*%%'` ;;
  *) ac_file_in="${ac_file}.in" ;;
  esac

which is around line 6686.  on the other hand, it doesn't make
sense that it's there since the exact same code in the pgsql-r-v7.2
code works fine (at any rate, pgsql-r-v7.2 compiles with one
minor fix (src/backends/commands/copy.c needs a #include <errno.h>).

i've got pgsql-r-v7.2 compiled and will be testing it.  has anyone gotten
postgres-r to build correctly on a Mandrake 9.1 (or Redhat 8.x or 9.x, 
is close enough, i guess) box?  

thanks for any pointers.

    The difficult we do today.  The impossible takes a little longer.
