This is not always the case, i.e. linux glibc systems does not need it. This should be done in similar fashion to the one we use for checking if -lc and -lm are needed on the link line. Lgb

I've seen a bug fix some time ago against gettext m4 files which deals with that. I'll try to find it again and apply it. The fact that gettext is not maintained is a real pain. One solution would be to take the version in latest fileutils, which is actively maintained. JMarc

If you'd like my opinion, stop repackaging the ``included-gettext'' altogether, and simply insist on its presense -- just like xforms, ispell, etc. -mi

A simple workaround is to configure with --with-included-gettext. JMarc

The fix I applied should be a real one :) JMarc
