>Description:
This is a variable to add dependencies for ports which need gettext,
so that when the libintl version changes, the ports which link to
it do not need to be changed to use it (although their PORTREVISIONs
should be incremented), but instead only one or two lines in
bsd.port.mk would need to be changed.

The 314 ports listed in
<URL:http://people.freebsd.org/~trevor/ports/gettext-dependencies.diff>
could use this.

>How-To-Repeat:
	
>Fix:

This patch is also available from
<URL:http://people.freebsd.org/~trevor/ports/use-gettext.diff>.  It
would add 8 lines to bsd.port.mk.

N.B. this patch assumes the use of gettext 0.13.x.  For 0.12.1, it
should instead read

	+BUILD_DEPENDS+=	msgfmt:${PORTSDIR}/devel/gettext-old
	+LIB_DEPENDS+=	intl.5:${PORTSDIR}/devel/gettext-old
