Control: retitle -1 libpqxx FTBFS: sed: character class syntax is [[:space:]],
not [:space:]
The most important part of the error message is:
...
checking for PQexec in -lpq... yes
sed: character class syntax is [[:space:]], not [:space:]
checking for correct C++ linkage of basic libpq functions... configure: error:
Linking a call to libpq failed in C++, even though it succeeded in C. If your
C and C++ compilers are very different beasts, this may mean that we do not have
the right options for linking with it after all.
...
The root cause is that sed recently became more strict, and the
following sed call in configure.ac now fails resulting in empty LIBS:
LIBS="`echo "$LIBS" | sed -e 's/-lpq[[:space:]]*[[:space:]]-lpq\>/-lpq/g'`"

"Only a promise," Lao Er said.
