--- Begin Message ---Hello. Received this from the Debian bug system: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Ron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Debian Bug Tracking System <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sat, 18 Feb 2006 22:11:38 +1030 Subject: Bug#353435: Patch for gettext.m4 to remove superfluous operations Package: gettext Version: 0.14.5-2 Severity: normal Tags: patch Hi, Please apply the following patch. The first hunk avoids calling AM_NLS twice. It could possibly even be simply removed there, as it is already AC_REQUIRED by AM_PO_SUBDIRS, which itself is required in the lines just before the first hunk starts. I'll leave that as an upstream call, this patch fixes the immediate problem. The second hunk is just an extension of the first, removing excess output from the configure run. All the information given there is already reported by code above in the same macro. It only sets the gt_source variable, which is not used anywhere else. Collectively they turn: --> checking whether NLS is requested... yes checking for msgfmt... /usr/bin/msgfmt checking for gmsgfmt... /usr/bin/msgfmt checking for xgettext... /usr/bin/xgettext checking for msgmerge... /usr/bin/msgmerge checking for CFPreferencesCopyAppValue... no checking for CFLocaleCopyCurrent... no --> checking whether NLS is requested... yes ++> checking for GNU gettext in libc... yes --> checking whether to use NLS... yes ++> checking where the gettext function comes from... libc into: checking whether NLS is requested... yes checking for msgfmt... /usr/bin/msgfmt checking for gmsgfmt... /usr/bin/msgfmt checking for xgettext... /usr/bin/xgettext checking for msgmerge... /usr/bin/msgmerge checking for CFPreferencesCopyAppValue... no checking for CFLocaleCopyCurrent... no checking for GNU gettext in libc... yes or: checking whether NLS is requested... yes checking for msgfmt... /usr/bin/msgfmt checking for gmsgfmt... /usr/bin/msgfmt checking for xgettext... /usr/bin/xgettext checking for msgmerge... /usr/bin/msgmerge checking for CFPreferencesCopyAppValue... no checking for CFLocaleCopyCurrent... no checking for GNU gettext in libc... no checking for iconv... (cached) yes checking how to link with libiconv... -liconv checking for GNU gettext in libintl... yes checking how to link with libintl... -lintl Without actually removing any functional part of the macro or any of the information reported to the user.
