Comment(by matt...@…):
Grub-1.98 doesn't build here as the new Makefile rules for the gettext
stuff don't seem to like srcdir != builddir trees.
Lines 528 & 529 of the Makefile try to generate a .pot file by doing a 'cd
..' and then calling xgettext with parameters of '../po/grub.pot' and
'../po/POTFILES' which obviously don't exist (as those now reference areas
outside of the grub-1.98 directory).
I tried to fix it with the following trivial sed:
{{{
sed -i '528,529 s/cd $(srcdir) && //' Makefile.in
}}}
Unfortunately, the $(srcdir)/po/POTFILES contains a list of source files
relative to $(srcdir), so invoking xgettext on those now fails as we're in
the build directory. This probably needs reporting upstream. Bruce, do
you want to do the honours? If not, that's fine, I can do so.
