Yocto Project is described as targeting "embedded software". I would expect that translator tools and programmer tools are not needed _in_ embedded software. If that is the case, you can build only the 'gettext-runtime' subdirectory of the gettext package. The 'gettext-tools' directory is what takes more time to build, but for "end users" the 'gettext-runtime' is all they need. Bruno [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yocto_Project
