I'm having problems getting OpenOffice to install, and I'm having problems with no -i available, but it's not with sed, it's complaining that XARGS doesn't have -i available.

I did try to install OpenOffice while the system was still 4.5-SOMETHING and it installed sed_inplace, then failed to complete the OpenOffice build. I did some research, saw the note to upgrade to the latest before installing OpenOffice, and did the new world/kernel, then tried OpenOffice again. That's when I got the errors about not having -i > you could investigate that by checking idents: > > freebsd4-6-2% ident `which sed` > /usr/bin/sed: > $FreeBSD: src/usr.bin/sed/compile.c,v 1.13.2.4 2002/04/26 07:43:50 sobomax Exp $ > $FreeBSD: src/usr.bin/sed/main.c,v 1.9.2.4 2001/11/29 05:22:44 mikeh Exp $ > $FreeBSD: src/usr.bin/sed/misc.c,v 1.3.2.1 2001/11/29 05:22:44 mikeh Exp $ > $FreeBSD: src/usr.bin/sed/process.c,v 1.10.2.4 2002/04/20 00:24:15 jmallett Exp $ > > a recent system should produce these versions: > $FreeBSD: src/usr.bin/sed/compile.c,v 1.13.2.8 2002/08/17 05:47:06 tjr Exp $ > $FreeBSD: src/usr.bin/sed/main.c,v 1.9.2.7 2002/08/06 10:03:29 fanf Exp $ > $FreeBSD: src/usr.bin/sed/misc.c,v 1.3.2.2 2002/07/17 09:35:56 tjr Exp $ > $FreeBSD: src/usr.bin/sed/process.c,v 1.10.2.9 2002/08/17 05:47:06 tjr Exp $ These are the exact version numbers I'm getting.

I'd like to know what I screwed, so I can unscrew it. ;) -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
