Description of problem:
[richardl@conundrum monotone]$ autoreconf --install
/usr/bin/autopoint: line 341: /usr/share/gettext/archive.tar.gz: No
such file or directory
cvs checkout: cannot find module `archive' - ignored
find: archive: No such file or directory
find: archive: No such file or directory
autopoint: *** infrastructure files for version 0.12.1 not found; this
is autopoint from GNU gettext-tools 0.14.1
autopoint: *** Stop.
autoreconf: autopoint failed with exit status: 1

I have gettext-0.14.1-7 installed. In order to avoid the above
problem, I need to downgrade to gettext-0.12.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
autoconf-2.59-3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run autoreconf --install.
2. Observe failure.

Comment 1 Daniel Reed 2004-08-20 03:20:59 UTC
autopoint is part of the gettext package. It looks like there is some
mismatch in our gettext package.

Comment 2 Leon Ho 2004-09-10 07:20:26 UTC
Richard, would you able to check if your configure.ac has this line?
AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION(x.yy.zz)

Comment 3 Richard Li 2004-09-10 11:58:26 UTC
Yup:

[richardl@conundrum monotone]$ cat configure.ac | grep AM_GNU_GETTEXT
AM_GNU_GETTEXT([external])
AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION(0.12.1)

Comment 4 Leon Ho 2004-09-13 23:54:44 UTC
That means it requires 0.12.1 as gettext version. Please try to change
it to reflect to the current version of gettext. Thanks.

Comment 5 Leon Ho 2004-10-01 17:54:43 UTC
I hope my comments help on the situation. Please feel free to reopen
if it does not help. Thanks!
