Estimated build time: &gettext-time-tools; Estimated required disk space: &gettext-compsize-tools; &aa-gettext-shortdesc; &aa-gettext-dep;   Prepare Gettext for compilation: ./configure --prefix=/tools Compile the programs: make This package has a test suite available which can perform a number of checks to ensure it built correctly. However, the Gettext test suite here in Chapter 5 is known to experience failures under certain host conditions -- for example, if it finds a Java compiler on the host (Note: an experimental patch to disable Java is available from the patches project). The Gettext test suite takes a very long time to run and is not considered critical. Therefore, we don't recommend running it here. Should you choose to run it, the following command will do so: make check And install the package: make install
