Re: [fetchmail]Re: New PO file for `fetchmail-5.9.2'

Karl Eichwalder <keichwa(_at_)gmx(_dot_)net>:
Does this just mean adding `make update-po` somewhere in my Makefile.in?
If so, where should it be?

At 'make install' and 'make dist' stages please make sure to have an
up-to-date po/fetchmail.pot file.  The update-po target has to depend on
po/fetchmail.pot and .gmo files must depend on .po files.

OK, I have attempted to write this into my dist and install
productions.  I wish I had any confidence at all that this weren't
going to break my build in some way that will take me three or four point
releases to recover from.

In case anyone hasn't noticed, I think the gettext system is overdesigned, 
overelaborate, badly documented, infuriatingly fragile, and I frequently 
wish I could shoot it through the head.
