Package: gettext
Version: 0.17-4
Severity: normal

With the introduction of automake-1.10, the existence of config.rpath is
now a requirement in a source distribution.  Since autopoint is the
command that copies in the file as necessary, autopoint needs to have a
dependency on cvs instead of just a Suggests, so that all the apporiate
tools will be available when the Build-Depends for a package are
satisfied.  If you don't want to require cvs on users systems, then you
should split the package into developer tools and the gettext runtime
tools.

Ideally the usage of cvs would be removed from autopoint upstream and
replaced with something a little more sane.
