🛠️ Merge branch 'ds/build-homebrew-gettext-fix' Recent update to Homebrew used by macOS folks breaks build by moving gettext library and necessary headers. * ds/build-homebrew-gettext-fix: macOS/brew: let the build find gettext headers/libraries/msgfmt Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin johannes.schindelin@gmx.de by dscho
🛠️ macOS/brew: let the build find gettext headers/libraries/msgfmt Apparently a recent Homebrew update now installs gettext into the subdirectory /usr/local/opt/gettext/[lib/include]. Sometimes the ci job succeeds: brew link --force gettext Linking /usr/local/Cellar/gettext/0.20.1... 179 symlinks created And sometimes installing the package "gettext" with force-link fails: brew link --force gettext Warning: Refusing to link macOS provided/shadowed software: gettext If you need to have gettext first in your PATH run: echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/gettext/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile (And the is not the final word either, since macOS itself says: The default interactive shell is now zsh.) Anyway, The latter requires CFLAGS to include /usr/local/opt/gettext/include and LDFLAGS to include /usr/local/opt/gettext/lib. Likewise, the msgfmt tool is no longer in the PATH. While it is unclear which change is responsible for this breakage (that most notably only occurs on CI build agents that updated very recently), https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/53489 has fixed it. Nevertheless, let's work around this issue, as there are still quite a few build agents out there that need some help in this regard: we explicitly do not call brew update in our CI/PR builds anymore.
