Bug ID: 2119015 Summary: fontconfig-devel may require gettext-runtime Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Status: NEW Component: fontconfig Assignee: tagoh@redhat.com Reporter: suanand@redhat.com QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: ajax@redhat.com, caillon+fedoraproject@gmail.com, fonts-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org, gnome-sig@lists.fedoraproject.org, i18n-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org, mclasen@redhat.com, pnemade@redhat.com, rstrode@redhat.com, sandmann@redhat.com, tagoh@redhat.com Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora
Description of problem: In F37 we moved the gettext runtime programs to gettext-runtime. So assuming if fontconfig-devel does not require any translation management tools (like msgcat or xgettext) at runtime, it should be possible for it to only Requires: gettext-runtime (instead of gettext). The goal here is only to install gettext-runtime in the Fedora live image(s), etc.

--- Comment #1 from Akira TAGOH tagoh@redhat.com --- Sorry, I totally missed this.
Well, The dependency of gettext in fontconfig-devel is to make sure for those who want to use fontconfig.its and fontconfig.loc through msg* command to generate a PO file from xml-based fontconfig configuration files. I could update it to the weak dependency perhaps since gettext binaries isn't necessary required to use any devel files in fontconfig. that being said, updating the dependency to gettext-runtime sounds a bit far from the purpose of this dependency. any thoughts?

--- Comment #2 from Sundeep Anand suanand@redhat.com --- Agree, msg* commands are still in gettext. (so probably no change required, from that perspective)
