makejvf @1.1a runs into the Mountain Lion sed: illegal byte sequence issue

[cooljeanius (Eric Gallager)]

I was trying to install makejvf to see if it would conflict with one of the texlive packages (because I had a sneaking suspicion it might), but it turns out I couldn't even install it due to Mountain Lion's sed having issues:

Apparently this can be fixed by using the LC_CTYPE environment variable.

Also this is openmaintainer so anyone can fix it

Aha! I was right! It does conflict with a texlive port:

Error: org.macports.activate for port makejvf returned: Image error: /opt/local/bin/makejvf is being used by the active texlive-lang-cjk port.

Although I guess I should open a new ticket for that...
