Description:   Opened: 2006-08-04 21:28 0000 
new bug tracker to figure out what's going on with these failures:
/bin/sh: @MKINSTALLDIRS@: No such file or directory

------- Comment #1 From SpanKY 2006-08-05 14:09:00 0000 ------- 
ok, this is because older gettexts used AM_MKINSTALLDIRS

newer ones are using AM_PROG_MKDIR_P

the problem happens when autotools are run ... the newer gettext m4 files are
used while the older gettext Makefile.in.in are not updated ... so autoconf no
longer replaces @MKINSTALLDIRS@ in the Makefiles leading the error seen

the proper fix depends on the package ... if your package includes the .m4
files like a good little boy, make sure aclocal is run with the proper -I <m4
dir> flags

if your package does not include the m4, then you may have to run `autopoint
-f` to update the Makefiles and `aclocal` to update the m4 files

*** Bug 142958 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

------- Comment #3 From Peter Parkanyi 2006-08-07 11:18:15 0000 ------- 
Could someone import these functions into autotools, say like a patch? Or
package maintainers will take care of the workaround?

------- Comment #4 From SpanKY 2006-08-07 19:07:37 0000 ------- 
you probably want Bug 142787

------- Comment #5 From Sven Wegener 2006-09-20 13:48:31 0000 ------- 
pretty bad that autopoint requires cvs to update the files

------- Comment #6 From Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2007-05-07 11:36:34 0000 ------- 
Nothing left here.
