Thanks for the hint. I've just played a bit with it and tried to
replace glib-gettextize with autopoint. Here what I've done, if
somebody will try it too.
autogen.sh:
Apart from the check in autogen.sh at top it means basically to
replace the line
echo "no" | glib-gettextize --force --copy
with
autopoint --force
configure.in:
More work comes up in configure.in, where we have to remove the
line
ALL_LINGUAS="it"
and call AM_GNU_GETTEXT instead of AM_GLIB_GNU_GETTEXT (the later
must be removed or the build will fail) don't know what that
implies for the GTK-way-of-gettext?
We also have to add the following line for autopoint:
AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION(x.yy.zz)
Makefile.am:
Here we have to mainly to add intl to SUBDIRS (before src)
po/LINGUAS:
This file must be added and filled with the contents of the
ALL_LINGUAS variable removed from configure.in
po/Makevars:
This file is created after the first successful run of autopoint,
but named Makevars.template. So we have to copy it to Makevars
and modifing the containing line XGETTEXT_OPTIONS to our
requirements (e.g.: XGETTEXT_OPTIONS = --from-code=UTF-8)
This file must contain top_builddir = .., or the build will
fail otherwise)
Now it should build an run properly. In my case it worked fine.
Cheers,
Andy
