Configure script doesn't check for msgfmt? #548
Comments
+1 |
Could you include the output of config.log? The lines around |
OK, never mind. The problem is that the I am happy to knock up a patch, but should the configure script disable gettext support if |

Is there much else to do than to add the necessary almost-noops in fallback.cpp? |

I suspect building without gettext did actually work at some point in the past, as the functions are all already written. There was a little bit of configure magic that needed hooking up, but I think the commits at https://github.com/zanchey/fish-shell/compare/kill-gettext do the trick. I have tested on
I don't think there's too much new Autoconf magic, so it should work okay on OS X, but I haven't checked. |

Things seem fine on SnowLeopard. Closing. |

Please let me know if I can provide any additional information.
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
