gettext 0.19 needs to be updated to 0.19.1 when released

[mkae (Marko Käning)]

According to the ​gettext mailing list there are bugs in its packaging causing error like so:

...

I have this problem as well on OSX 10.6.8 with a similar msgfmt problem in main.log.

I had the same problem on 10.6.8. I tried again a few times and finally it worked.

I have this problem on the latest 10.5 as well, except the sixth line from the bottom in the snippet above is different:

Command failed:  cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_mercurial/mercurial/work/3.0.1" && make -j3 -w all PYTHON=/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2.7

Same here. Race condition in the build system?

I had the same issue. It seems to be caused by the update to gettext 0.19 which occurred earlier today. Activing the previous version of gettext resolved the issue for me. e.g. sudo port activate gettext @0.18.3.2_0

According to ​https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gettext/2014-06/msg00007.html it sounds like this may be a bug introduced in gettext 0.19 that will be corrected in a soon-to-be-released gettext 0.19.1.

After downgrading gettext, I also was able to install mercurial 3.0.1.

Ok, so this isn't a mercurial issue at all but a gettext one.
