Bug 681788 – sys-apps/apparmor should unconditionally depend on sys-devel/gettext

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Aaron Jones 2019-03-26 10:34:04 UTC]

When emerging apparmor without gettext installed (e.g. you've set USE="-nls" globally and depclean removed it), the emerge fails because the apparmor Makefile unconditionally invokes msgfmt(1).

It would be best if the apparmor ebuild could get an nls USE flag to control this behaviour, but if the problem is with upstream (e.g. they do not provide a way to disable localisation), putting sys-devel/gettext into DEPEND is necessary.
