gettext is the GNU package which provides 'national language support' for other programs. It includes a number of utility programs.
Routine update. [[ compiled using gcc-4.3.4-4 and g++-4.3.4-4 ]] NOTE: any clients of libasprintf0 must be recompiled, as that DLL is a C++ library, and older versions were compiled with g++-3.4.4. This version was compiled using g++-4.3.4, and is not compatible -- but, contrary to typical cygwin practice, the DLL number has NOT been changed to indicate the break in compatibility (see below). Later updates MAY use g++-4.[5,6] -- when (if) that happens, there will be another backwards-incompatible change to the libasprintf0 DLL. In that case, too, there will NOT be a DLL number change (unless the API changes for some other reason). For more information concerning the decision NOT to increment the DLL number due to compiler-induced incompatibility, see this thread: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2009-04/msg00034.html However, these concerns apply ONLY to the libasprintf0 DLL; the other libraries are C, and are therefore unaffected, and continue to be backwards-compatible. Changes since gettext-0.17-11 ======================================== * Update to latest upstream release * Built using gcc4 (new dependencies on libgcc, libstdc++, and libgomp runtime DLLs). The downside of this is that it may trigger even more "*** unable to remap ***" errors; use rebaseall. * autopoint now uses git instead of cvs * Link xgettext against "wide" version of ncurses * Build note: autoreconf'ed using gcc-tools-epoch2-auto{conf,make} That package provides ac-2.64+am-1.11.1, which are old enough that gettext's m4 files don't trigger warnings; significantly cuts down on the amount of patching needed... * Installed emacs .el files into /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/gettext/ -- user can copy to $site_emacs or whatever is appropriate. -- Charles Wilson volunteer gettext maintainer for cygwin ==================================================================== To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.
