Hi all,

I made a patch that detects if libintl.h (needed for nls) is present on
the host system and if it's not, it nls support is disabled by
providing dummies for the used nls functions.

This way if there is nls support on the host system the *config targets
will build according to Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo's i18n modifications,
else it just uses the original English messages.

I have also made a bug report at kernel's bugzilla:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5501
And there is a discussion about this problem in Gentoo's bugzilla:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99810

Sam, I was wondering about this kind runtime configuration stuff, if we 
could cache the information and don't run the tests every time. 

bye, Roman

Haven't tested this myself, but looks like the way to go.

Thanks,

Looks like this patch was merged:

http://www.kernel.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=70a6a0cb92f24fd6bbe2e75299168909f735676a

I noticed with builds of -git3/-git4, I get the following complaints
from oldconfig:

scripts/kconfig/mconf.c: In function `main':
scripts/kconfig/mconf.c:1048: warning: statement with no effect
scripts/kconfig/mconf.c:1049: warning: statement with no effect

Not a big deal, just more complaints to have to see during the build
process (with CONFIG_NLS=y) :)

Thanks,
Nish

Hi,

It was caused by my copy/pasting error.

The file name is libintl.h and not libint.h (patch in the next e-mail)

This should be the output on nls free systems, but all systems were
detected as nls free because of that error.

Sorry for this mistake.

No worries, it didn't make the compile fail :) Thanks for the quick response!
