bug#34253: Libtool installation failing with syntax error

[David Mann]

Hello,

I am following the libtool installation instructions here:

curl -OL http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/libtool/libtool-2.4.6.tar.gz
tar -xzf libtool-2.4.6.tar.gz

cd libtool-*

./configure

make

sudo make install

Unfortunately, when I run make I get the following error:

  GEN      libtoolize

sed: 1: "/^\. /s|@auxscriptsdir\ ...": unescaped newline inside substitute pattern

make: *** [libtoolize] Error 1

I have tried this several times with the same results. I even tried going one version back to libtool-2.4.5

Please advise.
