Hey Finkers,I didn't know which mailing list this mail was supposed to be sent to, so please respond on the right one. Also, don't be alarmed if my next e-mail comes from [email protected] instead of [email protected], I'm subscribed there but this was more convenient for me.
Attached is gettext017_and_dpkg.tar.gz, a tarball containing an updated dpkg.{info,patch}, gettext-tools.info and libgettext8-shlibs. {info,patch}. gettext-tools was updated to reflect gettext version 0.17 - as opposed to gettext-tools-0.17 this one is not statically compiled, but it compiles against libgettext8-shlibs, the shared libraries for gettext 0.17. The dpkg package was updated to not build gettext along with dpkg, but compile against libgettext8 too.
I also created a dpkg-bootstrap, but when I compared it with the dpkg- bootstrap the current Fink bootstrapper contains, it was almost exactly the same (no NLS support being the obvious most important factor), so I left that one out. This set of packages should still allow Fink to be compiled from scratch as long as gettext is compiled and installed between dpkg-bootstrap and dpkg.
I'm open to any constructive criticism and constructive hate mail. This is one of the first packages I edited (let alone created) for Fink, so bear with me if I made any serious mistakes, but I think these ones should be free of them.
Thanks for any replies, SjorsPS: I think someone told me I needed to make a glib-bootstrap too, but upon further investigation I couldn't find out why. Does anybody see / remember why?
