I know, but this is, imho, an ugly workaround :) As sed is quite standard, a good solution could be having portage use sed i= n=20 the standard way, so that the alias is not needed anymore. It's a long shot, but when all the calls of sed will be standard, we could= =20 drop dependence on gsed and use it as a virtual package.. this will drop a= =20 package both on *bsd and osx. As nothing could be considered a regression in moving sed to standard=20 (argument disposition is just a little change, also other changes needed, f= or=20 example grouping similar regexp in a single script, are just minimal=20 changes), all the gsed functions used by portage are available on normal se= d,=20 and normal sed syntax is understood by gsed, having not to depend on gnu se= d=20 is something useful, from my point of view. =2D-=20 Diego "Flameeyes" Petten=C3=B2 http://wwwstud.dsi.unive.it/~dpetteno/ --nextPart2957986.Sk7Ln9zSe3 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBCSXMRe2h1+2mHVWMRAlFpAKDQnWEIc7GzxxIEgsv0V63CWr02zACfY/Dk IoVl6z32sAWWQOupzwD9POE= =JpDM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart2957986.Sk7Ln9zSe3-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
