we now require gettext version 0.18 at least

Why is that? Shall we do the same for all of LyX? We could use
this version as included gettext.

It's the requirement for gettext tools, AFAIK.
Otherwise the build stops because of bugs in the tools.
My work-around was denied with the argument "encourage people to update".
Do you remember? ;-)

Sorry, I remember now. It is not funny to get old, you know!

Yes, I know. I've to admit that you're a little bit right, too.
My work-around patch was targeted for 1.6 and 2.0 includes it already.
It was said to make both environments similar... what would you
say?

I think it's weird for a maintainer to have different build environments
for branch and trunk. Now for 1.6 we have higher requirements than for 2.0.
