No, I do not have this in my path. Let me that I have compiled most of the
binaries
included in /usr/gnu/bin and I have installed then in /opt/gnu/bin. Since I
have not
compiled GNUsed, compilation was failing. The main reason I have compiled
all
these GNU tools is to always have the very latest version.

No but I have "recompiled " TeXLive and I am attaching the file

checking for a sed that does not truncate output... /bin/gsed

This is from build.log so this means that it is able to find the "proper"
sed but it does not use it at that point.

OK after doing some search I have found the root of the problem: Modify file
source/texk/web2c/configure as
follows:

*** configure    2010-04-26 15:22:39.948579493 +0300
--- configure.new    2010-04-26 15:23:21.814565243 +0300
***************
*** 21094,21100 ****

  ## KPSE_LT_HACK: Prevent libtool from linking dependency_libs
  if test "x$enable_libtool_hack" = xyes; then
!   sed '/# Convert "-framework/i \
      ## KPSE_LT_HACK: ignore dependency_libs\
      test "X$installed" = Xyes && dependency_libs=\
  ' "$ofile" >"$cfgfile"

  ## KPSE_LT_HACK: Prevent libtool from linking dependency_libs
  if test "x$enable_libtool_hack" = xyes; then
!   sed '/# Convert "-framework/i\
      ## KPSE_LT_HACK: ignore dependency_libs\
      test "X$installed" = Xyes && dependency_libs=\
  ' "$ofile" >"$cfgfile"

In different words, just delete the space after the i modifier.


Kind regards,
A.S.
