autopoint is a part of gettext.
from mc.
In which system? Mine is Ubuntu 11.10, and here gettext lives without
autopoint perfectly, you know. Yes, I know this because I use gettext
all this time and have never had autopoint since fresh install.
Anyway, having subsequential dependency is no evil when one's gettext
requires it; but having not — definetely is, since there are systems
where they were separated. Correct either me or deps.

Yes, I know. autopoint is the development part of gettext.
It is the same as glib2-devel, ncurses-devel, etc are missing in INSTALL.

Which package in Ubuntu 11.10 it belongs to? Why does not it install
when one installs gettext? Explain, please, what you mean here.

I don't care Ubuntu. I use another distro.
Normally, libraries is split in two packages: runtime part (glib2, for example) and development part (glib2-devel).
Some tools can be also split to several packages: gettext itself is runtime part, other tools are development part (autopoint, gettextize, msgcat and so on). In case of correct package dependencies, runtime part doesn't require development part: glib2 doesn't require glib2-devel, gettext doesn't require autopoint, but glib2-devel requires glib2, autopoint requires gettext.

You said each distro has, this is only the source of misunderstanding.
Well, how you explain the question is not making you right, since
maybe your distro has a 'gettext-dev' package/task, but you did not
specify a dependency that will actually require autopoint any safe
and obvious way: 'autopoint requires gettext' does not mean 'gettext
requires autopoint' (although it conflicts with older autopoint, and
we can guess why).
It's generally quite correct to require a thing by thing-devel
package, but it does not explain how should one with gettext binaries
always have autopoint: since it's a part of gettext devel superset, it
should be either required by other reasonable task/package, or
specified explicitly. Tell where I am wrong. Or fix deps.

Please, fix it. ^,^
