Packaging hints for binary package distributors
|
|
===============================================
|
|
|
|
Although the source of the gettext package comes as a single package,
|
|
I recommend that in distributions of binary packages the installed files
|
|
be split into two packages:
|
|
|
|
gettext-runtime
|
|
Contents: Runtime libraries and programs.
|
|
Audience: Anyone who wants to run internationalized programs.
|
|
|
|
gettext-tools
|
|
Contents: Tools and documentation for developers and translators.
|
|
Audience: Anyone who wants to develop or localize internationalized
|
|
programs, i.e. developers and translators.
|
|
Dependencies: requires gettext-runtime.
|
|
|
|
The 'gettext-runtime' binary package is much smaller than the 'gettext-tools'
|
|
binary package (420 KB versus 5.5 MB). I recommend to include it in the default
|
|
installation list, like GNU 'sh-utils'; in fact, the runtime programs are
|
|
utilities for sh programs.
|
|
|
|
The 'gettext-runtime' binary package can be installed by doing
|
|
|
|
cd gettext-runtime
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
The 'gettext-tools' binary package can be installed by doing
|
|
|
|
cd gettext-tools
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
If you want to install both at the same time, you simply do at the toplevel
|
|
directory:
|
|
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
The precise split between gettext and gettext-tools is according to the
|
|
following file list.

Java support:
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
If GNU gcj is available at build time, two programs will be built as native
|
|
executables:
|
|
$prefix/lib/gettext/gnu.gettext.*
|
|
and the gettext-tools package will therefore have a runtime dependency to
|
|
libgcj.so.
|
|
|
|
If GNU gcj is not available at build time but another Java implementation is
|
|
available instead, the two programs will be compiled to Java bytecode only:
|
|
$prefix/share/gettext/gettext.jar
|
|
and the gettext-tools package will therefore have a runtime dependency to
|
|
the Java virtual machine (Sun Java2, IBM Java2, GNU libgcj.jar, or other).
|
|
|
|
|
|
C# support:
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
For C# support, one of pnet or mono must be available at build time; it must
|
|
also be available at run time. If you have both available, choose the desired
|
|
one through the configure option. Note there is no interoperability currently
|
|
between pnet and mono: Programs compiled with pnet don't run with mono, and
|
|
vice versa.
