James Peach commented on TS-1852:
---------------------------------
We do a check for the AC_PROG_SED symbol in configure.ac and invoke it if it's
available. I tried to track down the history of this and it seems that
AC_PROG_SED isn't there for all autoconf versions, but I couldn't figure out
which ones.
Good to hear that you have a workaround. I currently have autoconf 2.69 on OS X
and that works fine. Maybe there's something "interesting" about that
particular autoconf build in CentOS; I'll see whether we can test that.
As to the subsequent build issue, I think that the fastest way we can resolve
that is if you hop on to freenode IRC and ask in the #traffic-server channel. I
can help you out in real time there.
