gnutls: sed: 1: "/definition of _Noretur ...": filename expected

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

gnutls is failing to build on the OS X 10.8 and earlier builtbot servers, with this error:

rm -f stdnoreturn.h-t stdnoreturn.h && \
	{ echo '/* DO NOT EDIT! GENERATED AUTOMATICALLY! */' && \
	  sed -e '/definition of _Noreturn/r ' \
              < ./stdnoreturn.in.h; \
	} > stdnoreturn.h-t && \
	mv stdnoreturn.h-t stdnoreturn.h
sed: 1: "/definition of _Noretur ...": filename expected

I could not reproduce this issue on my own 10.8.5 machine, but did see it under 10.7.5 and 10.5.8. I have reported this to the GnuTLS mailing list.

This is src/libopts/Makefile.in line 1553:

@GL_GENERATE_STDNORETURN_H_TRUE@	  sed -e '/definition of _Noreturn/r $(_NORETURN_H)' \

So $(_NORETURN_H) appears to be empty.

Oh, and I see why. Looks like someone botched applying a patch manually or something; there’s a leading + on line 13 of the Makefile.am which has carried over to 1549 in the Makefile.in.

Fixed in r126711. Please send the patch upstream.

Replying to jmr@…:

Good catch! After manually deleting the +, I also tried patching Makefile.in, which didn't work…

I've sent the patch upstream.
