I'd maintain the Russian, but..

I have a 2.5 year old Fedora Core 4. 
it contains gettext-0.14.3 and there is no autopoint.

I tried to install the latest gettext-0.17, but it
wouldn't build because my system has no /lib/libattr.la
(it has .so only). and gettext-0.16 didn't fit, too.

It surprised me a bit; I do use about 2 years old
gEDA (actually just gschem, not very intensively)
and I easily rebuild PCB on my system.

I don't know gettext; perhaps it is essential to
depend on gettext-0.16.1 or later, but it is not always
convenient to have several versions of gettext in the
same system and I'm not sure the update will broke nothing
in it.

I wouldn't complain about automake and autoconf, however
I installed the most recent versions and couldn't
make reconfig
yet. the output of the command is attached for reference.

As a result I downloaded some tens of MB to translate 
I wonder how many lines, unsuccessfully. this is probably not my day.

How easy it was to translate geda-xgsch2pcb.pot after that!
(BTW, I think phrases like
 "Close the layout editor before %s."
 are not very good for i18n
)

Thank you for your attempts to internationalize gEDA. 
I believe it is very important for certain groups of users.
