Recently Mace et at. studied electron-acoustic solitary waves in a plasma using a pseudopotential approach. To find the finite ion-temperature Sagdeev potential, they used a numerical technique developed by Baboolal, Bharuthram & Hellberg. In this paper we show that the exact pseudopotential can be obtained in this case in an analytical form. The numerical results obtained by Mace et at. are compared with our result, and complete agreement is found. We also discuss the conditions for the existence of solitary-wave solutions, and obtain the soliton solutions in some cases when these conditions are satisfied.
