My bad.

Running autogen.sh, and then make dist works fine with gnupg 1.4.2. I also tried this using gettext (0.14.5), turns out autogen.sh is broken, the '#!/bin/bash'-shebang was missing. Bash apparently uses special magic to start files ending with .sh in bash if the shebang is missing. After manually correcting autogen.sh, make dist fails after a few minutes complaining: config.status: error: cannot find input file: po/Makefile.in.in This happens both when using fish and when using bash. I might add that gettext seems generally slightly flaky. The 'Hello world!' test program doesn't compile on Fedora, it seems to be missing some autoconf macros. bash, emacs and other GNU programs I have source for locally don't use automake.
