Re: sed expression error during install

I tried it with GNU sed 3.02 and 4.1.4 and still got the same error after a look at phpize I think the error occurs in the function phpize_replace_prefix() { sed \ -e "s##$prefix#" \ < "$phpdir/phpize.m4" > configure.in } $phpdir is /lib/php/build $prefix is empty because I built php with --prefix= runnig this line on a shell gives the same error message: sed -e "s###" < /lib/php/build/phpize.m4 > configure.in sed: -e expression #1, char 0: no previous regular expression is this because I built php with an empty prefix? Zitat von Martin Luethi <pecl@humbapa.ch>:

when I try to build a PECL package I got an error message from sed during installation and building of the package fails. it doesn't matter which package I try. e.g.: pear install fileinfo downloading Fileinfo-1.0.tgz ... Starting to download Fileinfo-1.0.tgz (5,566 bytes) .....done: 5,566 bytes 3 source files, building running: phpize Configuring for:
