Description Bruno Massa 2007-04-28 12:33:49 UTC 
Version:           1.11.4 (using KDE 3.5.6, Kubuntu (feisty) 4:3.5.6-0ubuntu14)
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.20-15-generic

guys,

since KBabel debian package (deb) doesnt have Gettext as it requirement, Gettext is not installed automactly. Every time you try to save a .po file, KBabel alerts about missing Gettext package. the file seems to be saved normally.

regards,

massa

This is a bug with the *distribution*, not with kbabel itself.

Please report to Debian or (K)Ubuntu.

If gettext isn't needed, why does it alert on saving?

it migt be a distribution issue that gettext isn't available, but if it actually isn't needed, then I would consider it a kbabel bug.

Submitter seems to say "the file seems to be saved normally"

/Sune

Pino,

i submmited to (k)ubuntu too. but the file apparently saves normally without gettext package. As Sune said: so why its getting warnings?

or it depends (and its a ubuntu repository maintainer problem), or it doesnt (so its a kbabel problem).

someone need to confirm this on some other distro.

regards,

massa
