Package: gnulib Version: 20140202+stable-2 Severity: normal
Dear maintainer. I ran into compilation problems for a program (Star traders http://www.zap.org.au/software/trader/) that has a bootstrap script that uses gnulib-tool before make is run. However I got the following error message when running make:
*** error: gettext infrastructure mismatch: using a Makefile.in.in from gettext version 0.19 but the autoconf macros are from gettext version 0.18
I tested using making a symlink from /usr/bin/gnulib-tool to the newest gnulib-tool from source, and this makes the error go away.
Probably relevant entry in upstream gnulib changelog: 2015-04-25 [...] In build-aux/po, copy Makefile.in.in and remove-potcdate.sin from $GETTEXT. This fixes a version mismatch between Makefile.in.in and the gettext-runtime m4 files. Regards, Anders Jonsson
