Hi, I am trying to add gettext support to a project, but po/Makefile is being generated incorrectly: e.g. the po/Makevars file is not being included: # Makevars gets inserted here. (Don't remove this line!) .SUFFIXES: and the @POMAKEFILEDEPS@ macro is not being expanded: Makefile: Makefile.in.in Makevars $(top_builddir)/config.status @POMAKEFILEDEPS@ cd $(top_builddir) \ && CONFIG_FILES=$(subdir)/$@.in CONFIG_HEADERS= \ $(SHELL) ./config.status This also means that $(top_builddir) never has its value set. My configure.in file contains the following lines: AC_INIT(configure.in) AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(myproject, 0.1) AM_MAINTAINER_MODE AM_CONFIG_HEADER(config.h) AC_LANG_CPLUSPLUS AC_ISC_POSIX AC_PROG_CXX AM_PROG_CC_STDC AC_HEADER_STDC AM_GNU_GETTEXT([external]) AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION(0.17) AM_XGETTEXT_OPTION([--from-code=UTF-8]) pkg_modules="gtk+-2.0 >= 2.4.0" PKG_CHECK_MODULES(PACKAGE, [$pkg_modules]) AC_SUBST(PACKAGE_CFLAGS) AC_SUBST(PACKAGE_LIBS) # etc etc AM_GLIB_GNU_GETTEXT AC_OUTPUT([ Makefile src/Makefile po/Makefile.in ]) The AM_XGETTEXT_OPTION macro for adding the "--from-code" argument is not being expanded either. Can anyone suggest what I might be doing wrong, please? I am using Fedora 9, which ships with gettext 0.17, autoconf 2.61 and automake 1.10.1. I have already tried deleting my m4 directory and the po/Makefile* files and then regenerating everything, without success.
