Hi All,

I've upgraded to gettext 0.11.5 and was having problems with some 
programs missing symbols from libintl. For example, my c++ binary would 
fail on anything but --version option. I didn't find a lot of relevant 
information, so by trial and error it finally turned out that I needed 
to rebuild glibc and GCC.
While looking over Google searches, I came across an LFS article on how 
to install gettext, which mentiones about 15 dependencies it has. 
Excluding things like GCC, I've added them to the DEPENDS file. Since 
LFS books are generated from a structured content which can be processed 
easily, can't we leverage what they have in terms of dependencies or 
maybe other relevant stuff like descriptions and such?
For example, they store all dependencies in Appendix A, so using the 
<literallayout> element in 
http://cvs.linuxfromscratch.org/index.cgi/LFS/BOOK/appendixa/gettext-dep.xml?rev=1.7&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup 
must be an easy way to compare our dependencies to theirs. BTW, we have 
two optional dependencies that they miss :-).

Sergey.
