Hi, I'm having problems compiling fetchmail 3.1.0. In particular, mkdep and
the main Makefile target fail because they can't locate intl.h, which on my
system resides in /usr/local/include/intl.h.
I have tried using --with-libintl-prefix=/usr/local as well as
--with-libintlprefix
I tried to track down what was happening in configure, what effects this flag
had, but the shell scripting is just too nasty; I'm a very experienced shell
scripter but it's way too much effort to figure out.
Furthermore, @INTLDEPS@ is not being expanded by configure; it is unmodifed
in the final Makefile.
GNU gettext is brittle, crappy code. I suggest you turn internationalization
off when configuring.
