dbus compiling problem on kubuntu

[Alexander Neundorf]

Hi,

when running autogen on dbus from cvs it stops with 


I am going to run ./configure with no arguments - if you wish 
to pass any to it, please specify them on the ./autogen.sh command line.
aclocal-1.9

./configure: line 25474: AM_GLIB_GNU_GETTEXT: command not found
configure: error:
*** You must have either have gettext support in your C library, or use the
*** GNU gettext library. (http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/gettext.html

Now type 'make' to compile dbus.


gettext is installed on the system, automake is 1.9.
It is a kubuntu 5.10.
What might be missing ?

Bye
Alex
