Subject: Bug#41978: kdebindings-3.0: link of qtc/clib/qtc directory fails on Solaris
X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=kde-bugs-dist&m=102018366709090

Package: unknown
Version: KDE 3.0.0 
Severity: normal
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 2.95.3
OS:                Solaris
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

The link of the share library in kdebindings-3.0/qtc/clib/qtc fails with a truncated argument list to the compiler due to the Solaris "sed" program truncating the output and giving and error of "Output line too long"

Configure tries to find a "sed" which doesn't truncate or says it does, but this neither fails nor detects that the Solaris "sed" program can't handle exceptionally long lines.

Installing the GNU "sed" program fixes the problem.

Either a workaround for Solaris' "sed" should be found or configure should error if GNU "sed" or equivalent can't be found.
