>Description:
With only gettext-lib installed, the build of ORBit fails because an m4
macro provided by gettext is not present. But the missing dependency is not
picked up:

===> Extracting for gnome-libs-1.2.8
===> Required executable msgfmt: /usr/bin/msgfmt found
===> Required executable gmake: /usr/pkg/bin/gmake found
===> Required package ORBit-*: NOT found
===> Verifying reinstall for ../../net/ORBit
===> Building for ORBit-0.5.6
gmake  all-recursive
gmake[1]: Entering directory /usr/pkgsrc/net/ORBit/work/ORBit-0.5.6'
Making all in popt

cd . && aclocal
aclocal: configure.in: 69: macro AM_GNU_GETTEXT' not found in library

>How-To-Repeat:
Build ORBit with only gettext-lib installed?

>Fix:
Install gettext.
