gettext is the GNU package which provides 'national language support' for other programs. It includes a number of utility programs.
Feature enhancement. (Required for cygport-0.9.6) This release is specific for cygwin-1.7. There is, as yet, no "matching" release for cygwin-1.5. [[ compiled using gcc-3.4.4-999 and g++-3.4.4-999 ]] This is important to note, because libasprintf0 is a C++ library. Later updates MAY use g++-4.3. When (if) that happens, there will be a backwards-incompatibile change to the libasprintf0 DLL, BUT the dll version number, contrary to typical practice on cygwin, will NOT be incremented. See this thread for more information: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2009-04/msg00034.html Changes since gettext-0.17-10 ======================================== * Enable -V option for autopoint (helps work around bug with packages that use both libtool and gettext, but specify AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION < 0.17. Because older gettext had a bug that caused difficulties with libtool, the -V option allows to automatically update the package to this version of gettext during the auto- reconf process, without manually patching the target package's configure.in. -- Charles Wilson volunteer gettext maintainer for cygwin ==================================================================== To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.
