Description Torne Wuff 2004-01-22 08:17:35 UTC
All versions of procps declare a dependency on gettext, however, only procps 2 requires it; none of the procps 3 versions available have any internationalisation support whatsoever, and thus don't use gettext. Everything else on my machine is built -nls so it's annoying that there's one gettext dependency left. =)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Read source code for any procps 3 version; grep for string 'intl'.
2. Emerge procps after unmerging gettext and injecting an empty gettext

Actual Results:  
procps continues to function perfectly, and no references to libintl or i18n
headers are found in the source.
