Also, what's the output of find /etc/terminfo -mindepth 2 -maxdepth 2 -type f? Have you got any versions of sed installed besides the standard one in /bin? sed: -e expression #1, char 57: Extra characters after command ^ -- Daniel Jacobowitz CodeSourcery, LLC -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#328933: pre-installation script fails
Package: ncurses-base Version: 5.4-9 Do not care about the german text below. While trying to install ncurses-base the pre-installation script fails. There is something wrong with sed. What is your architecture? i386 ( intel architecture ) What's linked to /bin/sh? /bin/bash Also, what's the output of find /etc/terminfo -mindepth 2 -maxdepth 2 -type f? Have you got any versions of sed installed besides the standard one in /bin? Yepp. There was an old sed version left, which was installed under /usr/bin/sed ( Version 3.02 ). /usr/bin/sed did not belong to any package. I did not install this version actively. I removed the old sed version and the preinstallation script worked. This problem seems to be related to sed and not to ncurses-base. You can resolve this bug. = Bugreport for sed ( unclean update )? thanx for help. Frank -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
