What is the exact error from make?

I know that gettext has a bug which means it deletes files occasionally
and you have to reinstall gettext. But I'm not sure it's related to this.

There should be a rule in your po/Makefile like this:

.po.gmo:
	file=$(srcdir)/`echo $* | sed 's,.*/,,'`.gmo \
	  && rm -f $$file && $(GMSGFMT) -o $$file $<

Is that missing?
