Summary: check build for 'xgettext' fails on Ubuntu 7.10 Product: Xen Version: unspecified Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux-2.6 Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Unspecified AssignedTo: xen-...@lists.xensource.com ReportedBy: fern...@gmail.com CC: mats...@amd.com

The file xen-3.1.0-src/tools/check/check_xgettext looks for the command 'xgettext' and fails if it is not found. With Ubuntu 7.10, the package that provides xgettext is xgettext-kde and the comand is named kde-xgettext (not xgettext).

I propose two different solutions: - modify check_xgettext so to search for 'xgettext' and if it's not found than search for 'kde-xgettext'; - "ln -s /usr/bin/kde-xgettext /usr/bin/xgettext"
