Unfortunately, since you’re not using our default tree, you won’t be able to
use the binary distribution to install the package, but there is a still quick
workaround.
It looks like the po4a build description is using a sed construct which works
with GNU sed but not with Apple’s BSD sed. You can install fink’s sed via
"fink install sed” and the po4a build should work for you.
