what version of gettext do you have ?

i can emerge the package just fine with USE=-nls ... however when i try to emerge with USE=nls i get this:
checking for pre-loadable libintl... no
configure: error: libpreloadable_libintl.so required (gettext 0.12+)

sys-devel/gettext-0.12.1 is what i have

I have gettext-0.12.1.  Worked for me.

[Comment 4 SpanKY 2004-02-05 06:16:46 UTC]

what provides libpreloadable_libintl.so ?  is it gettext ?
i dont have that lib on my machine ...

[Comment 5 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2004-02-05 11:14:32 UTC]

hmmm, dunno.  I don't have that library either.

[Comment 6 Martin Schlemmer (RETIRED) 2004-02-08 05:39:58 UTC]

gettext should be built without included gettext.  Also should be built with
shared libs for it to have preloadable_libintl.so.  Anyhow, added -r1 of gettext
and commited your ebuild with dep on gettext if nls in USE.

[Comment 7 Jason Wever (RETIRED) 2004-02-25 20:28:21 UTC]

Note that comment #6 does not seem to apply to sparc, as we're getting that error still even with the gettext adjustments.  If you have any suggestions on how to fix this, pleas add them to bug #42990.
