Hello to the gentoo-macos team ! When emerging glib-2.4.6 on MacOSX, the emerge operation fails at configure and I get this: Anthracite:/usr/portage/net-analyzer/netselect root# emerge gaim Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 18) dev-libs/glib-2.4.6 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) glib-2.4.6.tar.bz2 >>> Checking glib-2.4.6.tar.bz2's mtime... >>> WORKDIR is up-to-date, keeping... macos glibtoolize: `config.guess' exists: use `--force' to overwrite glibtoolize: `config.sub' exists: use `--force' to overwrite glibtoolize: `ltmain.sh' exists: use `--force' to overwrite configure: WARNING: If you wanted to set the --build type, don't use --host.

it looks like gettext was compiled without 'nls'. This should be hardcoded into the ebuild, so it shouldn't have happened. Make sure you've emerged sync recently, then recompile gettext, and try glib again. If it still fails, try 'USE=nls emerge gettext glib'.
Works fine here on multiple systems here. Reopen if needed.
Hi all, I'm afraid this one needs to be reopened... I just emerged sys-devel/gettext-0.14.1 (tried both with and without the nls use flag) and then tried to emerge dev-libs/glib-2.4.8 (also tried 2.4.6) I get the same error as described in the initial bug report: .... checking for LC_MESSAGES... yes checking libintl.h usability... no checking libintl.h presence... no checking for libintl.h... no configure: error: *** You must have either have gettext support in your C library, or use the *** GNU gettext library.

as requested by macshabba
Removing the two explicit removes of libintl for macos in 'gettext-0.14.1.ebuild' seems to solve this issue for me. # remove stuff that glibc handles if use ppc-macos then : else rm -f ${D}/usr/include/libintl.h rm -f ${D}/usr/$(get_libdir)/libintl.* fi rm -rf ${D}/usr/share/locale/locale.alias # /usr/lib/charset.alias is provided by Mac OS X use ppc-macos && rm -f ${D}/usr/lib/charset.alias
The problem is definitely in gettext and not glib. All versions of glib from 2.4.7 on up compile fine with gettext 0.12.1-r2.
libintl.h and friends are NOT provided on OSX systems, therefore we shouldn't remove them here. Fixed in both gettext-0.12.1-r2 and 0.14.1. 0.14.1. 0.14.1 provides an explicit check on an .so file, which obviously does not exist on OSX systems. I've pulled the keyword on that version pending a fix for that conditional. Leaving open until the problems with 0.14.1 are resolved.
Closing this bug since there is another bug open dealing with v. 0.14.1
Closing out bugs that've been resolved for a while now...
