Comment 1 Michael Schwendt 2025-05-15 15:36:55 UTC
Unrelated to Python, but build breakage with gettext > 0.23.1.

Comment 2 Dan Horák 2025-05-15 15:53:07 UTC
And https://savannah.gnu.org/news/?group=gettext suggests it has been fixed in 0.24.1. gettext-0.25-1.fc43 has been just built.

Comment 3 Michael Schwendt 2025-05-15 16:39:15 UTC
You've misread my comment. With gettext 0.23.1 the last successful build of Claws Mail was done on 2025-02-24. With gettext 0.24 it's broken. 24.1 has never published in F43 Rawhide.

And with 0.25 a build breaks very, very early, see: bug 2363810 comment 6
