Description of problem: I just can't understand why gettext-devel depends on cvs, its a bit of a wtf moment.
Ah that is for autopoint which moved to the base package. Fixed in cvs so next build should get it. Thanks for spotting and reporting it.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle. Changing version to '10'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Actually following also debian, I agree we can just drop it completely. Doing that in gettext-0.17-9.fc11.
gettext-0.17-10.fc10 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 10. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/gettext-0.17-10.fc10
gettext-0.17-10.fc10 has been pushed to the Fedora 10 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
Seems this can break autopoint, like in bug 517361. :-(
