I don't think that most people install it by hand... most people get it
from their distributions I would think...

I just had a look at
http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/devel/ 11.10
http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/devel/ 11.04
http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/devel/ 10.10
and they all list gettext 0.18.1? I would think all distributions newer
than the 21 month since the release of the latest gettext would ship
with it..
