Title: check for gettext in configure
Post by: elfstone on January 10, 2005, 10:49:15 PM

Hi, its the second time i cant compile amule because i lack gettext (i konw, i should learn of my mistakes) but if you see those error-messages its definitly not clear what the problem is, so please check for gettext in configure...

Would really help.

Hm, look at what you wrote in
http://forum.amule.org/thread.php?sid=&postid=25046#post25046


I lacked gettext, after i installed it.. well, didnt exactly work but then i got wxgtk-errors i could understand. I dont know if gettext is mandatory on all systems, but it should result in an error that i understand, not in a "no" in line 432 of 662.

So, maybe you should abort configure if no gettext is found, and tell the user "Install gettext"
