Re: GNU gettext 0.12 doesn't compile with objdir

[Frédéric L . W . Meunier]

What I did:

cd /home/fredlwm/tmp/objdir
/usr/local/src/development/gettext-0.12/configure --prefix=/usr 
--disable-dependency-tracking --disable-static --disable-nls
make -j4 CFLAGS=-O2 CXXFLAGS=-O2 LDFLAGS=-s

The first make failed due to the -j4. I thought it was due to
objdir and created the symlink. I did another make -j4
CFLAGS=-O2 CXXFLAGS=-O2 LDFLAGS=-s and it worked.

Then I did a make -j4 CFLAGS=-O2 CXXFLAGS=-O2 LDFLAGS=-s
DESTDIR=/root/install install as root. The -j4 here was a
"mistake" as I never use it in make install. I then manually
moved everything to /usr and ran ldconfig.

There are some differences in the make install logs. I have a
diff at
http://www.fredlwm.hpg.com.br/tmp/gettext_make_install.diff . I
ran the second without -j4 and any gettext libraries in
/usr/lib

The full logs are

http://www.fredlwm.hpg.com.br/tmp/gettext-make_install.txt
http://www.fredlwm.hpg.com.br/tmp/gettext-second_make_install.txt

What I notice are the various

: warning: `libgettextsrc.la' has not been installed in `/usr/lib'
: warning: `/home/fredlwm/tmp/objdir/gettext-tools/lib/libgettextlib.la' has 
not been installed in `/usr/lib'

in the second.
