Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: puredata Group: v0.43 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Rich E (reakin) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: missing gettext package breaks make

Initial Comment: /usr/local/bin/msgfmt -> /usr/local/Cellar/gettext/0.18.1.1/bin/msgfmt

pd version: latest git checkout (SHA c7fb8e4a06d...)

OS: OS X 10.7

issue: OS X 10.7 Lion does not seem to include the gettext package by default (Hans says neither does 10.5). Both ./autogen.sh and ./configure detect this and give warnings saying you won't get localizations. Still, make runs msgfmt after it is done building, causing an error since msgfmt (part of gettext) cannot be found.

There is a conditional in the makefile(s): HAVE_MSGFMT = no

but po/Makefile is still trying to call msgfmt. I think it is because po/Makefile is still added to AC_CONFIG_FILES, whereas is shouldn't be if the gettext package cannot be found.
