Re: How can I import build-aux/po/Makefile.in.in

[Akim Demaille]

Hi Paul, hi all!

I would really like some help here.  I am probably missing
something, but I am under the impression that the coreutils
are using gettext's po/Makefile.in.in instead of gnulib's,
so your fixes, Paul, would not be installed–as my first
diff below attempts to show.

Since I would like Bison to use the same approach as the
Coreutils, I would be very to understand my misunderstanding.

Cheers!
