 Hi there,

 when I try to build gettext (which I tried several times) I always get the
 following error message:

Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 What version of Mac OS X, Xcode and MacPorts do you have, and on what kind
 of Mac?

 Do you have anything installed in /usr/local? Sometimes this conflicts
 with MacPorts ports.

 Can you send me the debug output? run "`sudo port clean gettext`" and then
 "`sudo port -d install gettext 2>&1 | tee ~/Desktop/gettext.txt`" and then
 attach gettext.txt from your desktop to this ticket.
