Trying to build the current git head, I get this:
$ autoreconf -i
autopoint: *** The AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION declaration in your configure.ac
file requires the infrastructure from gettext-0.18.1 but this version
is older. Please upgrade to gettext-0.18.1 or newer.
autopoint: *** Stop.
autoreconf: autopoint failed with exit status: 1
I have gettext-0.17 on this machine.
Do we really need to require 0.18.1 or can this restriction be lifted?
I hacked configure.ac to require 0.17, and didn't see any problems
afterwards.
(I hate it when each package I build insists that I upgrade to the
latest and the greatest of each of its dependencies. When I build a
package, I don't necessarily intend to upgrade my entire system as
part of that build; in particular, I might have very good reasons for
sticking with older versions. Sorry about the rant...)
