#38878 new defect

gettext: Use macports libtool and thus support compilation against libc++

Reported by: dh@… Owned by: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.1.3
Keywords: Cc: cooljeanius (Eric Gallager), larryv (Lawrence Velázquez)
Port: gettext

Description

I am currently attempting to build various ports (in a separate tree) against libc++ rather than the default libstdc++. Currently gettext builds using its own libtool shipped in the distribution. That libtool does not support linking against libc++ (as it discards any-stdlib option passed). This results in one of the built libraries libasprintf linking against libstdc++.

This patch makes gettext depend on our own libtool port and uses it during the build phase.

Do we really need to increase the revision? If I understand correctly, rebuilding the port would not change the installed files for users who are using the default libstdc++, which would be basically all users except you.

No, you are right. We don't need to alter the revision.
