Hello,

I've updated gbrainy <https://www.freshports.org/games/gbrainy/> to last
version and it solves DEPRECATED: PR 253058
<https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=253058>

This program doesn't respect NLS knob (6.7.2. Optional Usage, Porter's
Handbook).

Could anyone try it to find a way to make NLS knob works? Gnu configure
have --disable-nls in it, but I can't make it to work.

//
- I contacted author and asked for his help on this matter.
- Author replied:
"Why do you need --disable-nls? How this helps in FreeBSD?
I'm surprised that this is needed since it's not needed for other Unix
variants. Additionally I have not made any major change in the last years
and I understand there was already a FreeBSD build."
- What should I reply?
//

Thanks,

Nuno Teixeira
