Re: evolution-exchange, pot-file missing



Actually, I know of just The Right Person to ask about these issues,
since he's active in both evolution-exchange and intltool: Rodney ;-) 

Rodney, can you give insight on 

2004-08-24  Rodney Dawes  <dobey novell com>

        * configure.in: Fix GETTEXT_PACKAGE to include -${BASE_VERSION} again
        Was accidentally removed on 2004-06-01 with "no" addition

and how is it supposed to work with intltool? (Try eg. "intltool-update sr" 
inside "evolution-exchange/po/"). 

Not entirely relevant, but here's a discussion from gnome-i18n which
led to my coming to you ;)

Cheers,
Danilo
