I think we have a problem with itstool. I was trying to build gnumeric and itstool gives a segfault. I can work around the problem by disabling the generation of non-english docs:

sed -i '/^HELP_LINGUAS/d' docs/Makefile.in

but that is a hack to gnumeric for a problem with itstool. A program should never segfault no matter what the input is. I'll note that we have had problems with itstool before.

My question is whether we should revert to an earlier version of itstool and if so, which one. It could be the latest before the 2.x versions, itstool-1.2.0. Or perhaps version 2.0.2 that still uses python2.

Or I can add my hack to the gnumeric page.

Which way should we go?
