Re: [Monotone-devel] The everlasting release, compiling on Win32

[Stephen Leake]

next problem: 

/usr/bin/xgettext: cannot create output file "po/monotone.pot": No such file or 
directory
make[1]: *** [po/monotone.pot] Error 1


manually doing 'mkdir po' lets it proceed. 

The relevant Makefile fragments: from main:

%.merged.po: $(srcdir)/po/%.po $(PACKAGE).pot
        $(V_msgmerge)$(MSGMERGE) $^ -q -o $@

from source-tree-cleanup:

po/%.merged.po: $(srcdir)/po/%.po po/$(PACKAGE).pot
        $(V_msgmerge)$(MSGMERGE) $^ -q -o $@


So the po files are moved into a po subdir, but there is no rule to make
the po subdir. I'm not clear the best way to add it.

I get the same problem on MinGW and Cygwin.

Does the Linux xgettext create subdirs?
