Full log
Message #41 received at 77944-done <at> debbugs.gnu.org (full text, mbox):
(Sorry for duplicate e-mail for some, but it seems that my previous attempt has failed.)
I can see the same issue on 30.1.50 on macOS as well, (built from:
https://github.com/jdtsmith/emacs-mac/commit/4caf8199ea11305ce5f6ca0a380cf18d200d5039).
That is, in emacs -Q
M-x man RET ls RET
yields a man buffer that shows:
sed: 1: "/^[\o001-\o032][\o001-\ ...": RE error: invalid character range
A quick check with:
M-x find-library RET man RET
shows that the line with
"-e '/^[\\o001-\\o032][\\o001-\\o032]*$/d'"
is there as well. The same line is also present in
8881dca81c95bac1977aa2c924be173382444c4a (tip of branch emacs-30).
I can see the fix (fc5e905dc90e21b1a381bde42e22c06f45c17e16) is contained in
branch master, but it's not in branch emacs-30 yet. Does it mean it's not
planned to be included in Emacs-30.2 (or Emacs-30.3)?
Cheers,
PK
