Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH v2 1/1] git: Fix libintl linking if there is no full gettext support
Date: Sat, 25 Aug 2018 16:10:27 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180825131027.6048-1-vadim4j@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Vadim Kochan <vadim.kochan@petcube.com>

Git could not resolve libntl_xxx symbols if toolchain does no provide
full gettext support but the gettext package is selected.

Steps to reproduce:
    1) make menuconfig
    2) Toolchain -> Select WCHAR
    3) System -> select NLS
    4) Target packages -> Development -> select git

In case of ulibc/musl toolchain there is no full getttext support, but
they still provides libintl stub which makes git think there is full
gettext support hence -lintl is not passed to the linker.

Added workaround which checks if NLS is enabled, if yes then -lintl will
be added to EXTLIBS variable within config.mak file.

v2:
    - added steps to reproduce in commit message
    - use $(TARGET_NLS_LIBS) to specify -lintl
