I get that too, actually. I just don't get the total compile failure
that Eric got.
I may have spoken too soon about everything being fine on Debian,
however. I get a working fetchmail binary, but something appears
broken in the autoconf-generated installation stuff:
cd po; make install
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/rfunk/fetchmail-5.7.1/po'
if test -r ".././mkinstalldirs"; then \
.././mkinstalldirs /usr/local/share; \
else \
/bin/sh ../mkinstalldirs /usr/local/share; \
fi
mkdir @GNU_LOCALE_DIR@
mkdir @GNU_LOCALE_DIR@/cs
mkdir @GNU_LOCALE_DIR@/cs/LC_MESSAGES
... and so on. So the message files get installed under the build
directory under po/@GNU_LOCALE_DIR@ instead of under
/usr/local/share/locale/.
And what's up with this?
% tar tzf ~/fetchmail-5.7.1.tar.gz |grep rej\$
fetchmail-5.7.1/po/Makefile.in.in.rej
% cat fetchmail-5.7.1/po/Makefile.in.in.rej
