undefined reference to `libintl_textdomain'

[Jeffrey Walton]

Hi Everyone,

Forgive my ignorance. I'm trying to build Perl and it is puking with:

    perl-5.32.0/locale.c:1182: undefined reference to `libintl_textdomain'

locale.c is located at
https://github.com/Perl/perl5/blob/blead/locale.c. It includes
<libintl>.

I see the FAQ has an entry for libintl_gettext
(https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/FAQ.html#integrating_undefined),
but I don't see one for libintl_textdomain.

Are these the same or similar errors? Or is libintl_textdomain different?

I think they may be similar. I believe the problem is lack of -lintl

Thanks in advance.
