[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

The following commit broke compatibility with BSD/macOS's version of sed:

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=guile.git;a=commit;h=81d2e352663bc5f80734312fec90f250b1fbe2e4


The error is "sed: -i may not be used with stdin" as described in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21242932/sed-i-may-not-be-used-with-stdin-on-mac-os-x



As a workaround I can replace the "         -i" in INSTANTIATE in libguile/Makefile.am with "         -i ''"



The incompatibility still exists in guile master as of http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=guile.git;a=blob;f=libguile/Makefile.am;h=a9646d88319c50853388268416f4d0773162969e;hb=HEAD#l476

Builds from release tarball might not run into this,
as the tarball already includes the file that rule creates;
at any rate, I don't run into that in my build of 2.2.3 on macosx.

The build is indeed using https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/guile/guile-2.2.3.tar.xz

You may have gnu-sed installed then.

In case it helps, here are full build logs:

https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/22542

https://jenkins.brew.sh/job/Homebrew%20Core%20Pull%20Requests/16097/version=high_sierra/console
https://jenkins.brew.sh/job/Homebrew%20Core%20Pull%20Requests/16097/version=sierra/console

https://jenkins.brew.sh/job/Homebrew%20Core%20Pull%20Requests/16097/version=el_capitan/console



I can reproduce it locally, outside of Homebrew, with the release tarball, and the problem occurs during `make install` not `make`.

I believe this is fixed with
