The full error (problem with verbatim formatting):

* error: gettext infrastructure mismatch: using a Makefile.in.in from gettext version 0.17 but the autoconf macros are from gettext version 0.18

I tried, but I got this error, and I have no idea how to fix that:


*** error: gettext infrastructure mismatch: using a Makefile.in.in from gettext version 0.17 but the autoconf macros are from gettext version 0.18

Hi Sebastien,

AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION checks for a minimum version.  So having it to check for 0.17 will pass on systems with gettext >= 0.17.

But I can live with the fact autotools will be removed from weechat.

You may close this.

Hi,

I'm not able to compile with gettext 0.17 since it's not available on my Debian (I have only 0.18).

Anyway, you should NOT compile with autotools unless you have a good reason to do that (autotools may be removed from WeeChat in future).
Cmake is the preferred way to compile weechat, and it should work with any version of gettext.

If you really can't use cmake (which is better and faster than autotools), then I guess you'll have to patch the configure.ac manually.
Or if you have a better solution that would work on a machine with only gettext 0.18, please tell me :)

RHEL 6 has gettext 0.17 and it is able to build weechat 0.4.2 using this version of gettext.  There is no real need for 0.18 as introduced by commit a3cc9bbe7e5dc868223f87471d1b569506341c86.
