[vlc] compiling problems

[Clemens Scheibe]

Hello everybody,

I’m still not successful in compiling vlc (on Ubuntu 10.04) even though 
I was following the instructions on http://wiki.videolan.org/UnixCompile 
and installed the required autotools (including gettext)

when I go on with “bootstrap” it ends with “Successfully bootstrapped” – 
but in the first lines it claims:

“GNU gettext appears to be missing or out-of-date. Please install or 
update GNU gettext. Also check if you have cvs, a dependency of 
autopoint. Otherwise, you will not be able to build a source tarball.”

So can anybody tell me what I should do?

Thanks, Clemens
