        Hi,

 This is a followup for Debian bug <http://bugs.debian.org/365727>,
 which I'm discovering now.

 Daniel, here's an attempt to summarize the various facts mentionned
 during the life of this bug report:
 - your initial issue happened when combining
   "AM_GNU_GETTEXT([external])" with intltool 0.34; intltool 0.34
   expects CATOBJEXT, but AM_GNU_GETTEXT([external]) -- which is meant
   ot be used with other intl tools such as intltool -- failed defining
   it
 - when this reached the eyes of gettext folks, they replied that
   intltool shouldn't be relying on this
 - intltool 0.35 doesn't rely on CATOBJEXT anymore

 (Please correct anything wrong here above.)

 Do you consider something still needs to be done?  Are you willing to
 fix a remaining issue with current gettext and intltool or are you
 trying to make it work in combinations such as newer gettext and
 intltool 0.34?  Or perhaps the bug is now completely obsolete?

   Thanks,
