Description Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-06-03 06:42:24 UTC 
As usual, no talking here. If you have found a package failing to use >=gettext-0.19 open a new bug and make that one block this tracker bug.
Comment 1 Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-06-07 22:06:17 UTC 
All of these issues are fixed by the following upstream commit, which restores the old msgfmt behavior:

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gettext.git/commit/?h=maint&id=317449061ac9b2ed2a24fa51de1bc75278ae8497

Please add this patch to portage.

I would either backport the patch or hardmask 0.19.0 until 0.19.1 is released then
Comment 4 Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-06-10 09:32:54 UTC 
gettext-0.19.1 is now in the tree.
Comment 5 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2015-07-10 07:41:34 UTC 
gettext-0.19 is stable now
