It's installed here 17 because it can be used by the patch program if you encounter an ed-based patch 18 file.

The 25 following patch makes Ed use mkstemp instead, which is the recommended way to 26 create temporary files.</para> 27 28 <para>Apply the patch:</para> 29 30 <screen><userinput>patch -Np1 -i ../&ed-patch;</userinput></screen> 31 32 <para>Now prepare Ed for compilation:</para> 33 34 <screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/usr</userinput></screen> 35 36 <para>Compile the package:</para> 37 38 <screen><userinput>make</userinput></screen> 39 40 <para>This package has a test suite available which can perform a number of 41 checks to ensure it built correctly.
