I would say: 0. Install gettext 0.18.1 on the machine on which you build the releases, and write AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION([0.18.1]) in your configure.ac. 1. call autopoint 2. call gnulib-tool --import 3. call "AUTOPOINT=true autoreconf ..." Step 0 is necessary because gnulib does not guarantee interoperability with older gettext releases (due to overlap of .m4 files). Step 1 installs the .m4 files from gettext. Step 2 overwrites them with the most recent but compatible versions. Step 3 generates all further autogenerated files.
