I kicked gettext out for a reason,
And that reason was if I may ask?
so I see little need to reintroduce
it as one of the patches does, if there is something wrong with
tinygettext (charset for output to console I guess), tinygettext
should be fixed and not replaced by awefull gettext again.
Whats wrong with it is that it cannot handle character encoding
conversion in any way (at all) and that it doesn't searches for
translations on unix in the usual way / location, breaking packaging
tools like rpm, which expect this location and use it this "info" to
only install the languages requested by the user.
Also if you would have bothered to take a look you would have seen that
the patch is very non intrusive and only uses gettext if HAVE_GETTEXT
get defined, if that is not defined then the current behaviour and code
paths are kept for 100%.
About the datadir patch, no idea, if it fixes something, somebody can
go and commit it.
Again if you would have bothered to take a look you would have known
that it actually fixes something, I'm not in the habit of comitting
useless patches.
I'm sorry if I sound a bit harsh, you've done a great job with pingus
for which I'm very grateful, but maybe its time to pass pingus
leadership over to someone else?
Regards,
Hans
