Subject: [PATCH/RFC] Auto detection in Makefile if msgfmt is not available
Date: Sun, 12 Feb 2012 13:42:24 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201202121342.25113.tboegi@web.de> (raw)

Since commit 5e9637c629702e3d41ad01d95956d1835d7338e0
"i18n: add infrastructure for translating Git with gettext"
the Makefile demands the existance of msgfmt, unless NO_GETTEXT is defined.

This breaks the build on systems where msgfmt is not installed.

Added a simple auto-detection and switch to NO_GETTEXT when
msgfmt could not be found on the system
