When I remember it right, the following comes from the Fink installation on my machine: which gettext /sw/bin/gettext which gettext.sh /sw/bin/gettext.sh None of the machines here (Mac OS X, Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS, OpenSuse 12.1) has a eval_gettext > * If so, Mac OS X users shouldn't have to say that from the command > line of "make". Do we need a Makefile update? Good question. I couldn't find any setup of USE_GETTEXT_SCHEME in Makefile (except when NO_GETTEXT is set), do I need to run configure? So far the Makefile worked for all my systems here. > > * If not, what is the appropriate value for USE_GETTEXT_SCHEME on= > Mac OS X?

My guess is that "gettext_without_eval_gettext" would be right (if we have Fink installed) But again, what did I overlook in the Makefile? Should there be some hard coded default for e.g. Darwin? With a switch when Fink is installed?
