Works - thanks!

Which version of sed are you using?

$ sed --version
sed (GNU sed) 4.2.2

4.2.1

from tcptunnel.

vakuum commented on May 30, 2024

I can't reproduce it with sed 4.2.1.

I used the following steps to install sed 4.2.1 separately under /tmp/sed-4.2.1:

$ mkdir /tmp/src

$ cd /tmp/src

$ wget https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/sed/sed-4.2.1.tar.bz2

$ tar -jxvf sed-4.2.1.tar.bz2

$ cd sed-4.2.1

$ ./configure --prefix=/tmp/sed-4.2.1

$ make

$ make install

$ export PATH=/tmp/sed-4.2.1/bin:$PATH

$ which sed
/tmp/sed-4.2.1/bin/sed

$ sed --version
GNU sed version 4.2.1
...

$ cd /tmp/src

$ git clone https://github.com/vakuum/tcptunnel.git

$ cd tcptunnel

$ ./configure 
checking host system type... Linux
configure: configure complete, now type 'make' and 'make install'.

Do you still get the error with the steps above?

Sorry, but that didn't work for me:

[ps395777]$ ./configure --prefix=/tmp/sed-4.2.1
-bash: ./configure: Permission denied
[ps395777]$ bash ./configure --prefix=/tmp/sed-4.2.1

checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p

checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out
checking whether the C compiler works... configure: error: in

Now we have two problems. :-)

Your /tmp partition seems to be mounted with the noexec flag.

So let's try it with $HOME instead of /tmp:

$ mkdir -p "$HOME/tmp/src"

$ cd "$HOME/tmp/src"

$ wget https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/sed/sed-4.2.1.tar.bz2

$ tar -jxvf sed-4.2.1.tar.bz2

$ cd sed-4.2.1

$ ./configure --prefix="$HOME/tmp/sed-4.2.1"

$ make

$ make install

$ export PATH="$HOME/tmp/sed-4.2.1/bin":$PATH

$ which sed
/home/clemens/tmp/sed-4.2.1/bin/sed

$ sed --version
GNU sed version 4.2.1
...

$ cd "$HOME/tmp/src"

$ git clone https://github.com/vakuum/tcptunnel.git

$ cd tcptunnel

$ ./configure 
checking host system type... Linux
configure: configure complete, now type 'make' and 'make install'.

@nigelhorne: Are you still trying to make it work?

Not forgotten about this - just been busy. Hold on :-)

Maybe sed is not the problem.

Please post the output of the following steps:

$ git clone https://github.com/vakuum/tcptunnel.git

$ cd tcptunnel

$ bash --version
GNU bash, version 4.3.11(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)
...

$ bash -x configure
++ echo
++ sed -n -e 's/.*--help.*/HELP/p'
+ HELP=
+ '[' '' = HELP ']'
++ echo
++ sed -n -e 's/.*--prefix=\([^\ ]*\).*/\1/p'
+ PREFIX=
+ '[' '!' '' ']'
+ PREFIX=/usr/local/bin/
++ sh -c 'echo /usr/local/bin/'
+ PREFIX=/usr/local/bin/
+ '[' '!' -d /usr/local/bin/ ']'
++ uname -s
+ OS=Linux
+ case "$OS" in
+ echo 'checking host system type... Linux'
checking host system type... Linux
++ echo /usr/local/bin/
++ sed 's#\/#\\/#g'

vakuum commented on May 30, 2024

There it is! :-)

The last sed command from my output doesn't contain a LDFLAGS value:

+ sed -n -e 's/@PREFIX@/\/usr\/local\/bin\//g;' -e 's/@LDFLAGS@//g;' -e 'w ./src/Makefile' ./src/Makefile.in

The last sed command from your output contains a LDFLAGS value:

+ sed -n -e 's/@PREFIX@/\/usr\/local\/bin\//g;' -e 's/@LDFLAGS@/-L/home/hornenj/lib/g;' -e 'w ./src/Makefile' ./src/Makefile.in

And this value is not correctly escaped, which results in an invalid regular expression:

$ sed -n -e 's/@PREFIX@/\/usr\/local\/bin\//g;' -e 's/@LDFLAGS@/-L/home/hornenj/lib/g;' -e 'w ./src/Makefile' ./src/Makefile.in
sed: -e expression #2, char 16: unknown option to `s'

So there must be an environment variable with the following content:

$ echo $LDFLAGS
-L/home/hornenj/lib

I will change the configure script to escape the LDFLAGS correctly.

nigelhorne commented on May 30, 2024

Indeed there is:

[ps395777]$ echo $LDFLAGS
-L/home/hornenj/lib
[ps395777]$

from tcptunnel.

vakuum commented on May 30, 2024

@nigelhorne: I changed the configure script. Can you give it a try?
