Dear listmembers,
dear Eric,
I tried your recommendation but doing this the apparently "harmless" warning
turned to an error.
Following your advice I put the define into configure.in, what made the
warnings vanish, however, if I do not forcibly enter the string
datarootdir = @datarootdir@
into intl/Makefile.in and po/Makefile.in.in something goes wrong with
compilation. The locale - files do not end up where they ought to go, rather
than /usr/share/locale things end up in /locale now. Obviously the
datarootdir should be defined somehow and is required for compilation.
Is there a way to add some variable to configure.in that would define
datarootdir so it is known to the gettext-structure?
So I think I have a chicken - egg issue - I cannot patch the files prior to
running autoreconf because things get overwritten - but my system requires
the path to be set so I have to patch the results of reautoconf afterwards.
Any further suggestions are highly appreciated,
thank you for your time,
take care
Dieter Jurzitza
