Of course I tried this before, but the po/Makefile.in.in is not
installed.

And also note gettextize is not in the autogen script:

[hilaire@ulysse dr-genius]$ grep macros/autogen.sh gettextize
grep: gettextize: No such file or directory
[hilaire@ulysse dr-genius]$ grep autogen.sh gettextize
grep: gettextize: No such file or directory

What I've done is to add in the configure.in:

AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS ([yes N | gettextize -f])


This is maybe not the cleanest way however.
All this sound weird to me.
