in reply to Install of Locale:gettext failing due to missing libintl

Well, do you have "libintl" library installed or not? If you do, what is the full path of the directory in which that was installed? Also, mention your operating system for others to suggest the way(s) to install the missing software needed.

    Running Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosimite). It looks like I have libintl per the below:

      If ... 

      nm -u /usr/local/lib/libintl.dylib | fgrep gettext

      [download]

      ... shows the text "gettext", then you may need to reinstall|update|change the present libintl files.

      Else, could you share the output of 

      perl Makefile.PL \
| egrep '(LDDLFLAGS|LDFLAGS).+/usr/local/lib' Makefile

      [download]

      ... ? If /usr/local/lib is missing from above, try to install manually after setting $CONFIGURE{'LIBS'} in Makefile.PL or LDDLFLAGSto set the library search path.

        Correction: change ... 

          perl Makefile.PL \
  | egrep '(LDDLFLAGS|LDFLAGS).+/usr/local/lib' Makefile

        [download]

        ... to ... 

        perl Makefile.PL
egrep '(LDDLFLAGS|LDFLAGS).+/usr/local/lib' Makefile
