#18 Enable localization
Hello,
In http://bugs.debian.org/881909 I have received a German translation (po file) for autogen. Looking at the sources I find autoopts/po/usage-txt.pot but the rest of the infrastructure (bindtextdomain() call, Makefiles to update/build/install the po files) seems to be missing.
I think that "pot" file has to be added to the pot data of whatever program
links with the autoopts library.
"sharutils" does this. Autogen itself has not been internationalized. Just
the option processing library.

That only makes posible sense for static linking, a l10n'ed shared library is shipped with message catalogues and invokes bindtextdomain. See https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/Libraries.html#Libraries
Thank you. Of course, I did all this long ago and far away, so I'll look
into this after the holidays are over. (I'm retired now, so "holidays" last
from mid-November until early January. :-D ) It also means I prefer to
spend the time with my camera instead of programming inside at a computer
desk! Cheers - Bruce
