Description

When installing Rudder on AIX we get this error:

sed: illegal option -- i
Usage:  sed [-n] [-u] Script [File ...]
        sed [-n] [-u] [-e Script] ... [-f Script_file] ... [File ...]
execution of rudder-agent-2.10.1.rc1.git201403271731-1.AIX.5.3 script failed, exit status 127

The use of "sed -i" in the RPM postinst is required for upgrades from 2.6 or earlier. Since we didn't support AIX on those versions, we don't need it. I'm just going to enclose it in a "if os != AIX" block.
