If I understood correctly, the only effe= ct > of adding "-lexpat" will be to encode an rpath (and to need expat as an > input to gettext, of course). Yes. It also means that from now on, gettext will depend not only on glibc but also on Expat, and that upgrading Expat will entail a full rebuild (so it can only be done in core-updates.) It=E2=80=99s probably OK because Expat has no extra dependencies, is quite small, and fairly stable. Otherwise that would be less convenient. Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
