Change patches to sed's where possible

[gerard@…]

sysvinit: mv src/init.c init.c.temp && sed 's/\(.*\)\(Sending processes\)\(.*\)/\1\2 started by init\3/' \

init.c.temp > src/init.c &&

make -C src && make -C src install

shadow-20001016 install .. mv src/useradd.c useradd.c.temp &&

sed 's/\(.*\) (nflg

\(.*\)/\1\2/' useradd.c.temp > src/useradd.c &&

blah blah

i've changed the sysvinit and shadowutils installs to use sed's instead of patches. I'm currently checking whether it's feasible for any of the other patches before I close the bug.

We could replace the man-1.5i2 patch with this:

for i in configure src/Makefile.in src/makewhatis.sh ; do sed s/gawk/awk/g $i

$i.fixed ; mv $i.fixed $i; done

Comments?

We can also replace the sh-utils patch with the following:

sed s/mon_yday/mon_yday2/g lib/mktime.c > mktime.c.temp && sed s/mktime_internal/mktime_internal2/g mktime.c.temp > lib/mktime.c

I'm going to copy this and the suggested man one to lfs-discuss.

Last one I think!

Instead of the gzip patch we could use: for i in gzip.h util.c do sed s/basename/basename2/g $i > $i.fixed mv $i.fixed $i done

[markh@…]

The only ones left which could be changed are the sh-utils and gzip ones.

AFAIK all the reasonable ones have been seded ;-) I'm therefore closing this bug for now although I have no doubt it'll get reopened at some point.
