I introduced a regression in sed that currently has screwed up
/sys/lib/man/secindex.
The issue is that sed 's/$/ foo/g' will actually replace the newline
character with foo instead of just appending at the end of the line.
This only makes a difference when sed is operating on a multiple line
record. The effect is a record like:
foo
bar
baz
becomes:
foo foobar foo baz foo
instead of
foo foo
bar foo
baz foo
The fix is at http://okturing.com/src/3595/body Please someone apply
this at their earliest convenience (sorry).
Thanks,
spew
