This is to report a bug found with gnu sed versions 1.02 and 1.06.
Problem lies in asking sed to perform branches (b label).
Error message is
/usr/local/gnu/bin/sed: Can't find label for jump to ''
Machines are Sun3 runing SunOS 3.4, Sun SPARCStation running
SunOS 4.0.3, Sun 386i running SunOS 4.0.1. Only version 1.06 was
tried on SPARC and Sun386i.
Here are details on script used for test. Script used for test is
known to work with /bin/sed (Sun's sed). It was modified only to
specify use of GNU sed. Script expects input lines in format of
/etc/passwd with hostname prepended. I.E.,
ra|root:lWlgn9USZ1TPI:0:1:System Administrator:/:/bin/csh
Expected output is of form
Administrator, System root 0 ra /
Here's script
#!/bin/sh
/usr/local/gnu/bin/sed \
-e ':jr' \
-e '/ Jr[^:]*:/ {' \
-e '/:\([^: ]*\) \([^: ]*\) Jr[\.]*:/s//:\2, \1 Jr.:/' \
-e '/:\([^: ]* [^: ]*\) \([^: ]*\) Jr[\.]*:/s//:\2, \1 Jr.:/' \
-e 'b all' \
-e '}' \
-e ':3d2p' \

Fixing this required small changes in setup_jump and in main() at the point where jump addresses were stored (the execution phase already tested for this). The fixed version can be obtained via anonymous ftp from tukki.jyu.fi (128.214.7.5) in ~ftp/pub/sed/gnused106t2.tar.Z (or by sending me mail). Incidentally, if anybody has ftp'd gnused106t1.tar.Z there was another bug which is also corrected now (it wouldn't compile with non-ANSI compilers because I'd forgotten to add non-ANSI declaration for two functions). -- Tapani Tarvainen (tarvaine@tukki.jyu.fi, tarvainen@finjyu.bitnet)
