OK then. I have changed the warning in autogen.sh. Hopefully it is
more clear now.
Thanks!
The Fink GNOME package maintainers will include an updated intltools 
package along with coming GNOME 2.8 updates.

I don't think so. If we would have let autogen.sh fail, people
couldn't have been able to build GIMP from CVS until a fixed version
of intltool was released (which wasn't the case for about a year).

I don't think so. If we would have let autogen.sh fail, people
couldn't have been able to build GIMP from CVS until a fixed version
of intltool was released (which wasn't the case for about a year).

What I don't understand here is why does fink use autogen.sh at all?
fink should use a released tarball and the released GIMP tarballs have
been created with a working version of intltool and thus include
working versions of the intltool scripts. You are not supposed to run
autogen.sh unless you have a very good reason to do so. Does fink have
such a reason? If so, why haven't we been told about it yet?

[Gimp-developer] intltool 0.30 produces XML error in gimp-tips.xml

2004-12-01 Thread Brion Vibber
autogen.sh checks for intltool < 0.28 or > 0.31 due to a known problem 
with corrupt XML output, but if you have a bad version the script just 
says "the problem is harmless, you may continue the build" and 
automatically moves on.

It appears however to actually produce a corrupt gimp-tips.xml if you 
have intltool 0.30 (which is the current version available in the fink 
package set for Mac OS X). Those tips containing  get horribly 
munged... On startup, Gimp complains on the console:

  Error while parsing '/opt/gimp-2.1/share/gimp/2.0/tips/gimp-tips.xml':
  Error on line 48 char 29: ')' is not a valid character following the
  characters '
As a result, only the first 4 tips actually get shown on a build 
compiled this way; the rest are discarded when the error halts XML 
parsing. Rebuilding it with intltool 0.32.1 gets things working right.

I'll see about submitting an update to the fink package, but perhaps 
autogen.sh should be a little pickier to make sure bogus builds don't 
make it out the door.
