Yeah, I've been looking into that. But Solaris's gettext and the GNU one seem so entirely different - like --version just gets repeated out as input, it doesn't elicit a special response of any kind. So much of this shell script becomes redundant. It looks to me that I have a recent enough version of GNU gettext installed in /usr/local/bin to just stick that ahead in my path and let autogen.sh get on with it. It works the standard Solaris way with hacking, but it doesn't install properly, so what the hell. Not exactly hard to fetch and install GNU gettext - it's on the Companion CD I think =O) So I'm building that way now. Which leads to other problems. Like intl/Makefile still has YACC set to ":" for some reason. Easy to fix. But then I need to fix plural.y so that %expect is 7 instead of 10, for some reason? Bison errors out otherwise. And then Solaris's m4 doesn't accept -I... Now for some reason, /usr/ccs/bin/m4 was hard coded, path and all, into my bison, so I had to move that out the way and soft link to /usr/local/bin/m4 to fix that. Anyway, it works now. In po, I have a Makefile.in and a Makefile.in.in. Both of them have contents now, and it seems that I have to remove a .in each to get that working properly. That's just too weird for words, that is ;O) Fixed that too, and po makes now =O) So, make install, restart E, and everything seems to be great =O) Many thanks once again. Hopefully *some* of my effort today will help someone other than me =O} Anyone else see this weird po/Makefile[.in]* issue, or YACC in intl/Makefile being :?
