HI,
I have not previously built an app that uses gettext. The relevant
parts of the makefile are:
VERSION = 1.16
CFLAGS = -g -Wall -D_GNU_SOURCE
LDFLAGS += -g
alternatives: alternatives.o
alternatives.o: alternatives.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -DVERSION=\"$(VERSION)\" -c alternatives.c
I am getting many
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/10/../../../../x86_64-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:
/usr/src/alternatives-1.16-1.src/alternatives-1.16-1.x86_64/build/alternatives.c:1389:
undefined reference to `libintl_gettext'
messages while linking.
I have installed the gettext-devel and libgettextpo-devel and
libintl-devel packages, but I can't seem to properly rewrite the
CFLAGS or LDFLAGS despite several attempts.
Can someone recommend a simple cygwin package that uses gettext and
the cygintl-8.dll
TIA,
Doug
