Sun Oct 10 13:48:34 2021, comment #5: Hi Sam. I fixed it in commit 71f1b46d41. Please, let me know if it works for you and if this issue can be closed.	Sergey Poznyakoff <gray>
Tue Sep 7 14:26:27 2021, comment #4: That is a temporary reversal. It turned out that oss-fuzz still uses autoconf 2.69, so I had to revert the change in order to let the fuzzing checks a chance to work. I'll bring it back in as soon as I find a way to build gdbm on their platform.	Sergey Poznyakoff <gray>
Sun Sep 5 22:16:10 2021, comment #3: Ah, it had to be reverted because of a requirement for older autoconf [0]. That said, consumers with old autoconf can just use the bootstrapped (make dist'd) tarballs? Anyway, would you mind reopening this bug until we can fix it again? Cheers!

Fri Sep 3 20:14:45 2021, original submission: (Originally reported downstream at https://bugs.gentoo.org/696838.) gdbm currently uses AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION(0.18) in configure.ac which causes an error when using newer versions of gettext: ``` make[2]: Entering directory '/usr/mips64el-unknown-linux-gnu/tmp/portage/sys-libs/gdbm-1.18.1/work/gdbm-1.18.1-abi_mips>* error: gettext infrastructure mismatch: using a Makefile.in.in from gettext version 0.18 but the autoconf macros ar>make[2]: * [Makefile:181: check-macro-version] Error 1 ``` Using AM_GNU_GETTEXT_REQUIRE_VERSION(0.18) instead to specify a lower bound is sufficient to avoid this issue.	Sam James <thesamesam>
