Hi All,
I am running some package updates and one of those was gettext from 0.24 to 0.25
gettext built without any problems but when the build got to fireperf it failed. Restoring gettext to the 0.24 version caused fireperf to build without any problems.
The fireperf build log content was:-
May 13 13:19:31: Building fireperf make: Entering directory '/home/build/sandbox/ipfire-2.x/lfs'
make: Nothing to be done for 'download'.
make: Leaving directory '/home/build/sandbox/ipfire-2.x/lfs'

I found the following in the 0.24.1 version changelog
* Bug fixes:
- Fix bad interactions between autoreconf and autopoint.
and the following bug in gettext "bug #67090: autotools issue with gettext-tools 0.24.1"
with the conclusion
I have now added a piece of documentation that clarifies how to obtain the autoconf macros, and that autoreconf is discouraged for this purpose:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gettext.git;a=commitdiff;h=43f5ac51ddeb1b70a7b9647cb45cfeee67fd8c41
fireperf is using autogen.sh to create the configure file and it runs autoreconf.
It looks like with the latest gettext version autoreconf should be replaced with some other method but I have no idea what?
Regards,
Adolf.

Got it to build successfully. I realised that the message was about --force not being specified for autoreconf and not autopoint so I added --force into the autoreconf command in autogen.sh and fireperf then built successfully. Then the ddns package came along some build steps later and failed with the same message as fireperf. So I will look at taking the same action with that one as well and see how much further I get after that.
