sed: command garbled

[Mark Detrick]

Error occurs during running of "configure" of sed-4.1.5



sed: command garbled: install_sh=/appl/sed/sed-4.1.5/config/install-sh



Problem is in these lines of code in the configure file:



sed -e '/^mkinstalldirs *=/a\' -e "install_sh=$install_sh" -e
's/^mkinstalldirs *=.*/mkinstalldirs=$(MKINSTALLDIRS)/' intl/Ma

kefile > intl/Makefile.tmp



sed -e '/^mkinstalldirs *=/a\' -e "install_sh=$install_sh" -e
's/^mkinstalldirs *=.*/mkinstalldirs=$(MKINSTALLDIRS)/' po/Make

file > po/Makefile.tmp





CLI output from configure:
