Subject: Findlib fails to build on OS X Leopard
Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2008 18:17:25 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <aee06c9e0807161817s217d7b4ax6875043567db3e04@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

My colleague is trying to install GODI but it's choking on findlib
1.2.2.  Specifically, the command used to locate the std. lib. in
get_stdlib is not compatible with OS X's sed:

ocamlc -where | sed "s/\r//" || ...

The version of sed included with Leopard doesn't support
backslash-escapes like \r.  Instead, it treats '\r' just like 'r', so
this turns '/Users/blah/...' into '/Uses/blah/...' and the std. lib.
can't be found.

Until this bug is fixed the workaround is to install gnu sed.

Cheers,
-n8
