Hello,

I've tried to upgrade the outdated. I updated from MacPorts 2.0.3 to 2.1.2. After that I made an

sudo port upgrade outdated

Curiosly gettext-0.18 is installed but he tried to update it to version 0.17. Compilation breakes. I've cleaned everything and now following error message is shown:

The version of gettext in MacPorts is 0.18.1.1 and has been for awhile, and builds fine for me on all OS X versions; I don't know why you're seeing 0.17 or 0.18. Please "sudo port clean gettext", "sudo port selftupdate", and then try again, and attach the main.log file if it fails again.
