Package: gcdb
Version: 1.1.5-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

will not install... gcdb.postinst hangs indefinitely after reporting an
unknown option to sed -e 's' command.

problem is caused by an attempt to replace parameters with their values by
using sed s#param#$value# type commands... but the values can *contain* the
'#' character.

I was able to successfully install by editing the command in the gcdb.postint
script replacing '#' with '/'

After shell variable expansion, here is the command that failed:

#bin#sed -e "[EMAIL PROTECTED]@#On#; [EMAIL PROTECTED]@#gcdb#; [EMAIL 
PROTECTED]@#localhost#; [EMAIL PROTECTED]@#gcdbmgr#; [EMAIL 
PROTECTED]@#hidden#; [EMAIL PROTECTED]@#gcdb#; [EMAIL PROTECTED]@##000088#; 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@##AAAAFF#; [EMAIL PROTECTED]@##000088#; [EMAIL 
PROTECTED]@##7777FF#" #etc#gcdb#gcdb-settings.php.in > 
#etc#gcdb#gcdb-settings.php

 after my edit, here is the command that succeeded:

/bin/sed -e "s/@dbpersistent@/On/; s/@dbname@/gcdb/; s/@dbserver@/localhost/; 
s/@dbuser@/gcdbmgr/; s/@dbpass@/hidden/; s/@brand@/gcdb/; s/@topbar@/#000088/;
