Thanks!

I think I see some problems (I did not test this).  First, I'm surprised
this works, since I would expect m4 to drop the [], so that they'd need
to be doubled into [[]]:

    sed 's/conjunction([0-9]\+,[0-9]\+\/[0-9]\+)/conjunction()/g'

Second, \+ is a GNU sed extension.  Usually we avoid GNU extensions
since sometimes people want to run OVS (and maybe OVN?) with BSD.  The
portable way to write it is \{1,\}.

Maybe it would be easier to write s/conjunction([^)]*)/conjunction()/g,
doubling the [] if necessary.

Thanks,

Ben.
