I did that but still:

# pkg_info -L gettext-tools | grep xgettext
/usr/pkg/bin/xgettext
/usr/pkg/man/man1/xgettext.1
/usr/pkg/share/doc/gettext/xgettext.1.html

# ls /usr/pkg/bin/xgettext
ls: cannot access '/usr/pkg/bin/xgettext': No such file or directory

I then revmved gettext-lib and rebuilt glib2 and the installation went fine.

Thanks for the tip, but I wonder why this has happened. A simple 
database corruption?
