Description

If you don't have gettext installed at configure time, make fails with an unclear error message:

make[2]: Entering directory '/home/jwilk/exiv2/po'
: --update bs.po exiv2.pot
rm -f bs.gmo && : -c --statistics -o bs.gmo bs.po
mv: cannot stat 't-bs.gmo': No such file or directory
Makefile:128: recipe for target 'bs.gmo' failed
make[2]: *** [bs.gmo] Error 1

(Tested with svn revision 3885.)

Which distribution are you using?

I use kubuntu (and cygwin and mingw) and gettext is there by default. Difficult to reproduce because I can't easily remove gettext because its a dependency of other pre-installed packages.

I'm using Debian unstable.

I meant the gettext command-line tools (in package gettext), not gettext libraries.

Fix submitted r4049.

Jakub:

I've fixed this by adding code to config/configure.ac to test that gettext (and msgmerge etc) are on the path. If these utilities are not on the path, NLS will be disabled. So, you'll have to regenerate your configure script to use the fix:

$ svn update .
make config
./configure
make clean
make
Please let me know if this is OK for you. I haven't looked at the CMake scripts to see how/if they deal with this.

Looks good to me, thanks!

Thanks, Jakub. I'm marking this 100%/Resolved. If nothing else surfaces concerning this, I'll close it at the end of February.

Jakub: Can you have a look at #1102. I'm stuck with that. Can we progress #1102, or close it. Let me know.
