See my email to freebsd-ports asking about the dependacy on
textproc/expat2 (Message-ID: <20040823042724.GA64310@dragon.nuxi.com>)
The define "HAVE_LIBEXPAT" is the knob gettext uses to specify that
'expat' is available. The problem is only
gettext-tools/src/x-glade.c refers to "HAVE_LIBEXPAT"; but x-glade.c
never makes it into any of the libs that I can find.
I'l look into seeing how devel/popt could use something that never makes
it into the gettext libs. See my email to Kris asking what he would like
done.
BTW, I would have thought that members of portmgr would be on the
freebsd-ports list and you could have offered your knowledge before I
accidently forced you to. :-(
