Re: sed: file conftest.s2 line 38: Unterminated 's' command

Hi Jonatan,

	It is indeed a problem with the ORBit installation on your system,
in particular, the 'orbit-config'.  I had this problem as well, and
upgrading that program should fix it for you.  To see if your
'orbit-config' is up to date, type:

	orbit-config

on its own.  If as one of the known values listed is:

	--use-service=SRVC

then you know you have an up-to-date version.  If that option is not
listed, your 'orbit-config' installed in your path is an old copy.  The
sed error shows up because configure tries to use 
orbit-config --use-service, when that option doesn't exist and ends up
putting the orbit-config Usage listing (the same that shows up when typing
orbit-config) in place of what the --use-service option is supposed to
return.

Check that.  Hope this helps.

Steve
