<title>Installation of Gettext</title>

<para>Prepare Gettext for compilation:</para>

<screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/tools --disable-libasprintf \
    --disable-csharp</userinput></screen>

<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para><userinput>--disable-libasprintf</userinput>: This flag tells
Gettext that we don't want its asprintf library.  Nothing in Chapter 5 or 6
requires this, and gettext gets rebuilt later, so we exclude it to save
time/space.</para></listitem>

<listitem><para><userinput>--disable-csharp</userinput>: Gettext has a nasty
habit of searching for a C# compiler on the host, and building bindings for it.
We've already <quote>locked</quote> ourselves into the temporary tools though,
which doesn't have a C# compiler.</para></listitem>
</itemizedlist>

<para>Compile the programs:</para>

<screen><userinput>make</userinput></screen>

<para>(If you insist on testing the results, then issue: <userinput>make
check</userinput>. This takes a very long time, around 7 SBUs. Moreover, the
Gettext test suite is known to experience failures under certain host
conditions -- for example when it finds a Java compiler on the host (but an
experimental patch to disable Java is available from the LFS Patches
project).)</para>

<para>And install the package:</para>

<screen><userinput>make install</userinput></screen>
