I am submitting this fast track for Kenjiro Tsuji.
It times out on Friday, November 9th.
This case seeks a patch binding so it will be possible to port this
work back into a Solaris 10 update although there are no plans to do so
at this time.
(For those of you who have been involved in recent cases moving stuff
from /usr/sfw into /usr/bin, this case is not related to those cases.
This case adds new GNU utilities to /usr/bin that had never been in
/usr/sfw/bin and creates a few symlihks in /usr/sfw for utilities that
have had a 'g' added to the start of their names in /usr/bin to avoid
clashes with other utilities already present in /usr/bin.
PSARC/2007/634 was recently submitted and is closely related to this
case. There are two cases rather than one because this case delivers
changes into the SFW consolidation while the other case will deliever
changes into the ON consolidation.)
Sincerely,
Don

2. Project Summary
2.1. Project Description
This project introduces the utilities in version 0.16.1 of the GNU
gettext package into the Solaris WOS.
Patch release binding is requested.
4. Technical Description
The GNU gettext package is a set of utilities for handling
message files for the GNU gettext and the runtime support.
Solaris systems already offer some of those utilities
(/usr/bin/msgfmt, /usr/bin/gettext, and /usr/bin/xgettext).
This proposal will install the GNU utilities corresponding to
them into /usr/bin/ with a 'g' prefix and install symbolic
links to them into /usr/gnu/bin/ without the 'g' prefix.
The remaining GNU gettext package utilities (envsubst,
msgattrib, msgcat, msgcmp, msgcomm, msgconv, msgen, msgexec,
msgfilter, msggrep, msginit, msgmerge, msgunfmt, msguniq, and
ngettext) are not currently present on Solaris systems. To
provide better GNU environment compatibility, these utilities
will be installed into /usr/bin/ without a 'g' prefix.
Runtime support for the utilities in this project is provided
by PSARC/2007/634 (More compatibility with GNU gettext in
gettext(3c)). This project, therefore, has a dependency on
PSARC/2007/634 and must not integrate before it.
