[glib-1.3.9]$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-static --enable-shared --enable-debug=yes --enable-threads --disable-nls
Here's what I got.
...[snip]...
checking whether NLS is requested... no
configure: error:
*** You must have either have gettext support in your C library,
or use the
*** GNU gettext library. (http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/gettext.html
I don't know what that means but that's the first time I've seen anything like it and I've configured hundreds of packages using --disable-nls.
