[bugzilla-noreply at freebsd.org]

Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla at FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-multimedia mailing
list <multimedia at FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback:
Bug 232967: multimedia/vlc3: unsetting NLS prevents share/vlc.appdata.xml form
being created
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=232967



--- Description ---
If I unset NLS, this happens during configure:

checking whether NLS is requested... no
checking for msgfmt... no
checking for gmsgfmt... :
checking for xgettext... no
checking for msgmerge... no

and this happens during stage:

Making install in share
gmake[4]: Entering directory
'/construction/xports/multimedia/vlc3/work/vlc-3.0.4/share'
: --xml --template vlc.appdata.xml.in -d ../po -o vlc.appdata.xml || cp
vlc.appdata.xml.in vlc.appdata.xml
gmake[5]: Entering directory
'/construction/xports/multimedia/vlc3/work/vlc-3.0.4/share'
gmake[5]: Nothing to be done for 'install-exec-am'.
: --xml --template vlc.appdata.xml.in -d ../po -o vlc.appdata.xml || cp
vlc.appdata.xml.in vlc.appdata.xml
 /bin/mkdir -p
'/construction/xports/multimedia/vlc3/work/stage/usr/local/share/metainfo'
 install  -m 0644 ./vlc.appdata.xml
'/construction/xports/multimedia/vlc3/work/stage/usr/local/share/metainfo'
install: ./vlc.appdata.xml: No such file or directory

Judging by the executed commands, it would be better if gmsgfmt is set to
false, failing the first part of the two commands above, falling back to simply
copying the input file to the output file. Patching ${WRKSRC}/share/Makefile is
also a possibility.
