Bug#462460: exim4-config: install fail with 'sed: -e expression #1, char 205: unterminated `s' command'

[Petter Reinholdtsen]

Package: exim4-config
Version: 4.69-1
Severity: seriuos

The exim4-config package in unstable fail to upgrade in my sid chroot.
Setting severity to serious as this problem break package
installation.

This is the last message when setting EX4DEBUG=true during upgrade:

  + update-exim4.conf
  sed: -e expression #1, char 205: unterminated `s' command
  dpkg: error processing exim4-config (--configure):
   subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

I guess the bug is in /usr/sbin/update-exim4.conf.  Running it with
'sh -x /usr/sbin/update-exim4.conf' ends with this:
