>Description:
The gettext port is buggy.
The macro AM_GNU_GETTEXT in /usr/local/share/aclocal/gettext.m4 try to
find where all the gettext stuff is located (in libc, in libintl,
nowhere, etc...)
But if it finds a suitable libintl, it forgets to set the INTLLIBS
variable.
I think this is why, for example, you can find a patch to
add -lintl to CFLAGS in the gtk12 port. This is also why
you can find a "--with-included-gettext" in the gnupg port.
>How-To-Repeat:
I will use the gnupg port as an example, but the problem is *not* in
gnupg, it's really in gettext.
Compile and install the gettext port.
Compile and install the gnupg port.
Patch /usr/local/share/aclocal/gettext.m4 with my patch.
Then 'make patch' in the gnupg port and configure & compile by hand with :
CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" ./configure
gmake
Then launch ldd on the two binaries :
$ ldd `which gpg` g10/gpg
/usr/local/bin/gpg:
libz.so.2 => /usr/lib/libz.so.2 (0x280d8000)
libc.so.3 => /usr/lib/libc.so.3 (0x280e5000)
g10/gpg:
libz.so.2 => /usr/lib/libz.so.2 (0x280c8000)
libc.so.3 => /usr/lib/libc.so.3 (0x280d5000)
libgdbm.so.2 => /usr/local/lib/libgdbm.so.2 (0x28161000)
libintl.so.1 => /usr/local/lib/libintl.so.1 (0x28167000)
GnuPG is now linked with libintl.so. The link with libgdbm is a side
effect of
1) specifying /usr/local/include & /usr/local/lib to configure.
2) having the gdbm port installed
Then compare the size of the two binaries :
(this is with "-O2 -m486" in /etc/make.conf)
$ size `which gpg` g10/gpg
text data bss dec hex filename
448981 9412 12276 470669 72e8d /usr/local/bin/gpg
413811 9420 7372 430603 6920b g10/gpg
>Fix:
Add this patch to /usr/ports/devel/gettext/patches/ :
