*harumph* I remember getting bitten by this also. I am a little confused that we mandate GTK <= 2.6, but require the latest intltool stuff to build gEDA/gaf. The whole point about GTK <= 2.6 is to allow folks with older machines to build gEDA/gaf without requiring a big system library upgrade. But if you need the latest intltool stuff (which pullls in lots of other new dependencies), then GTK <= 2.6 is a moot point. In my ideal world, we would have the I18N stuff turned *off* by default, and allow package maintainers to enable it for various national distros. Barring that, maybe configure should check for intltool, and if it doesn't find a version it wants, then it should issue a message like checking for intltool >= 0.35.0... 0.34.1 found. Your intltool is too old. You need intltool 0.35.0 or later, or disable internationalization by setting --disable-intltool I realize that everybody thinks software I18N is a good thing which makes us feel warm and cozy about being inclusive. However, if it prevents folks from easily installing gEDA in the first place, then I'd say that we're shooting ourselves in the foot.
