Re: [gtk-list] Can't compile GLib in Mac OS X

[mpsuzuki hiroshima-u ac jp]

Hi,

I remember, configure of glib has no option to specify
the location of gettext explicitly. Thus, the developer
with gettext in /usr/local should modify CFLAGS-families
aslike

	CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib"
	CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include"
	LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib"

please try. But I have to notice that it can make
other unexpected libraries exposed to glib configure.

To glib developers - is it bad idea that the addition
of an option to specify the location of gettext to
glib configure? Please let me know.

Regards,
mpsuzuki
