Yes, I know :) FWIW that is what some 'official' gnus programs like
coreutils do, so being Abdel's preferred solution is less scary as it
sounds.
What I do not know is what is going to happen on platforms like
MacOSX.
I hace two versions on my system.
One is
$ /usr/local/bin/gettext --version
gettext (GNU gettext-runtime) 0.14.5
which is probably also used for building the Mac binaries. I am not
quite sure where this version comes from, but I have seen the same on
another mac.
I have also a newer version installed (via Macports, a framework for
installing all sorts of Linux stuff):
/opt/local/bin/gettext --version
gettext (GNU gettext-runtime) 0.17
If neceassary, with the the right compiler flags we could probably also
use the Macports version to build the binaries.
In any case, we can also compile and install the latest gettext from
source (it is as simple as configure/make install).
So no problem on the Mac, just let us know what version is needed.
Thanks,
