When sed from the coreutils port is installed (in /opt/local/bin, which is first in my $PATH), installing libxslt fails with: {{{ Error: reinplace: sed: invalid option -- E }}} A fix could be to hard-code the path to BSD sed: /usr/bin/sed. But it would probably be better not to rely on non-POSIX features, in particular if Apple decides to use another version of sed in the future. Note that the BSD sed man page says: {{{ The -E, -a and -i options are non-standard FreeBSD extensions and may not be available on other operating systems. }}}" defect closed Normal MacPorts 1.6 base 1.5.2 fixed vinc17@… nox@…
