Re: [GRASS-dev] hacking configure for gettext

[Michael Barton]

Thanks Glynn. 

I'll try this out and see what happens. I've also tried to point the generic 
--with-includes= and
--with-libs= switches to my gettext location but it has made no difference. 

It looks like it is bundled dependencies that cause Mac OSX SIP to block GRASS 
launching. Trying to run the install_tool on every possible binary file that 
might link with one of these seems unrealistic. The simplest solution seems to 
be to build all dependencies outside of the Mac system folders. That is a pain 
but doable...if GRASS will recognize these dependencies in their non-system 
locations.

Currently, gettext is treated as a system function, i.e. there's no
way to configure search paths beyond the generic --with-includes= and
--with-libs= switches. It's checked initially without additional
libraries (AC_CHECK_FUNC), and if that fails with -lintl
(AC_CHECK_LIB).

To treat it as an external library function, try the attached patch.

Note that you'll need to add $(INTLINC) to ... something. probably
Either INC (in Grass.make) or NLS_CFLAGS (in Compile.make). Adding it
to individual Makefiles isn't feasible because  is included
from , which is included by practically everything.

[GRASS-dev] hacking configure for gettext

[Michael Barton]

I would like GRASS to use gettext that is installed in a location NOT in the 
standard /usr/local... I have no problem building gettext in such a location 
but I am having problems telling GRASS where to find it.

The configure switch to enable gettext is --with-nls. I've tried adding 
additional arguments

--with-nls-includes="/Users/cmbarton/grass_source/gettext/gettext_dist/include" 
--with-nls-libs="/Users/cmbarton/grass_source/gettext/gettext_dist/lib"

to tell GRASS where to find gettext but these do not seem to do the trick.

Can someone familiar with the build system suggest how to specify where to find 
gettext or now to modify configure so that GRASS can find gettext in this other 
location?

The reason for this is twofold. It makes for cleaner compiling and updating if 
I can keep GRASS dependencies out of my system files. It is also needed to 
avoid the SIP problem on the current Mac OS. The more dependencies that can be 
bundled with GRASS that do not link to system folders, the better.

Thanks
Michael
