Ths seems > to be a common pattern, but I'm not sure what the correct fix is. autoreconf doesn't generally call gettextize - most autogen scripts don't either due to the (annoying) habit of gettextize with requiring keyboard confirmation whenever it changes anything. The changes made would have to be added as a patch. However, I didn't get a gettext-related issue with gtkmathview, so I'm not sure if this is the same fix as you're describing. Is there a partial patch somewhere else? -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
