# checking news for gettext and recode first # checking news for cygwin then
Dear Cygwin-Developers, yersterday, I made/installed recode 3.5 and 3.6. The only problem was gettext. With ./configure the message /tmp/recode-3.6/src/main.c:464: undefined reference to `_imp__gettext' appeared several times. Adding '--with-included-gettext' when calling configure does not change anything. Excluding getext at all by ./configure --without-included-gettext removes the messages and 'make; make test' is passed. Configure reports checking for gettext... (cached) no checking for gettext in -lintl... (cached) yes checking whether the included gettext is preferred... yes if called with '--with-included-gettext' or without and checking for gettext... (cached) no checking for gettext in -lintl... (cached) yes checking whether the included gettext is preferred... no with '--without-included-gettext'. So, configure detects the installed gettext package correctly. config.h contains #define HAVE_DCGETTEXT 1 #define HAVE_GETTEXT 1 #define HAVE_DCGETTEXT 1 #define ENABLE_NLS 1 if configure is called with '--with-included-gettext' or without and #define HAVE_DCGETTEXT 1 /* #undef HAVE_GETTEXT */ #define HAVE_DCGETTEXT 1 /* #undef HAVE_GETTEXT */ #define HAVE_GETTEXT 1 #define ENABLE_NLS 1 with '--without-included-gettext'. Using NLS not at all by '--disable-nls' is possible as well, of course. So _imp__gettext is not found if the gettext of recode is used and using gettext of recode is default. Does this make sense? If gettext is provide in the installation of the OS it should have priority over a local gettext by default, I thing?
