[Fedora-xen] Tryimg to build virt-manager from mercurial: getting error: possibly undefined macro: AM_GNU_GETTEXT - why ?

[Mark Ryden]

Hello,

I have Fedora Core 6 on x86_64 machine.
I want to build the virt-manager latest from mercurial repository.
I follwed the instructions on the web:
http://virt-manager.et.redhat.com/scmrepo.html

I had performed
"hg clone  http://hg.et.redhat.com/virt/applications/virt-manager--devel"

and them ran:

./autobuild.sh
make: *** No rule to make target `distclean'.
aclocal:configure.ac:6: warning: macro `AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION' not
found in library
aclocal:configure.ac:7: warning: macro `AM_GNU_GETTEXT' not found in library
configure.ac: installing `./install-sh'
configure.ac: installing `./missing'
src/graphWidgets/Makefile.am: installing `./compile'
src/graphWidgets/Makefile.am: installing `./depcomp'
configure.ac:6: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.ac:7: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_GNU_GETTEXT

I have on this FC6:  gettext-0.14.6-3.fc6, (from rpm of
the original installation) , intltool-0.35.5 (build from source).

Why is it so ? what should I do ?


Regards,
Mark
