Running ./autogen.sh should already be requiring minimum tools; look at how bootstrap.conf has the $buildreq variable that includes gettext 0.17 as a prereq. Maybe the problem is that you can have a system with gettext but not msgmerge? What distro are you using, and what package(s) did you install to get things working? How are the binaries divided between packages? Do we need to add a line to $buildreq?
I use ubuntu-11.10.
I just issued "sudo apt-get install gettext" and things worked.
What do you mean by "How are the binaries divided between packages?" ? I'd say in my system packages installed by apt-get are all installed in default directories, such as /usr/local
On Fedora, 'autopoint' is part of gettext-devel-0.18.1.1-8.fc16.x86_64, but 'gettext' and 'msgmerge' are parts of gettext-0.18.1.1-8.fc16.x86_64. Thus, checking for either the 'gettext' or the 'gettext-devel' package in isolation is wrong; a bootstrap of libvirt needs both packages on Fedora (then again, gettext-devel depends on gettext, so depending on the right one package pulls in both).
What I'm trying to ask, then, is why your run of ./autogen.sh didn't pick up that 'gettext' was missing, and why installing the 'gettext' package also installed the 'msgmerge' binary needed later on in the build.
