Most distributions ship it anyway. Usually something like "yum install intltool" or "apt-get install intltool" should do the trick for you. > Since internationalization is not required by now, I wonder whether this > intltool checking can be disabled via running configure with disabling > a feature or without a package in order to have a running Avahi. The current configure code requires it. But you are of course welcome to prepare a patch that makes this functionality optional. And I would certainly merge it if it is clean. Please note that a patch for this might end up being more complex than you might think on first sight, since you might need to define _(x) to x to make the internationalized strings without intltool/gettext work.
