Description Ross Burton 2012-06-13 11:37:12 UTC
/usr/share/aclocal/intltool.m4 isn't installed in the intltool package, which renders it rather useless.
Comment 1 Ross Burton 2012-06-13 11:39:35 UTC
When this is fixed, intltool also needs a rdepends on gettext-dev.
Comment 2 Ross Burton 2012-06-13 12:09:06 UTC
And then when using intltool it turns out that a rdepends on libxml-parser-perl is missing.

I don't think I can make intltool depend on gettext-dev, I get this error:

NOTE: Checking Package: intltool
ERROR: QA Issue: intltool rdepends on gettext-dev

The error disappears if I replace the dependency on 'gettext-dev' with 'gettext', but I don't think that's the point. Not sure how to fix this.
Comment 4 Ross Burton 2012-06-27 14:46:21 UTC
The dependency is on gettext-devel, as intltool is a development tool.  That's a QA warning and I believe you can mark the package as an exception.

Is there a simple way to mark this exception?
Comment 6 Ross Burton 2012-07-23 10:14:01 UTC
INSANE_SKIP, or something like that.
Comment 7 Jessica 2012-09-14 14:17:56 UTC
RP mention it should be an easy fix that we should get it fixed for 1.3
Comment 8 Constantin Musca 2012-09-21 11:09:23 UTC
Bug fixed.

Changes:
- include /usr/share/aclocal/intltool.m4 into the intltool package (the files from intltool-dev must be included into the main package, as intltool is a development tool)
- add missing rdepends: gettext-dev, libxml-parser-perl
