New: Compiling linux kernel fails if BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_TOOL_CPUPOWER is selected

https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=9181

Bug ID: 9181
Summary: Compiling linux kernel fails if
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_TOOL_CPUPOWER is selected
Product: buildroot
Version: 2016.05
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P5
Component: Other
Assignee: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org
Reporter: Jorgen.Pihlflyckt at ajeco.fi
CC: buildroot at uclibc.org
Target Milestone: ---

Compiling fails just after the linux kernel has been built, if "cpupower" is selected under "Linux Kernel Tools" with the following error:

CC utils/helpers/sysfs.o
In file included from utils/helpers/amd.c:9:0:
./utils/helpers/helpers.h:13:21: fatal error: libintl.h: No such file or directory

 #include <libintl.h>
                     ^

compilation terminated.

Enabling WCHAR support under toolchain settings, and then selecting "gettext" under "Target Packages" and "Development Tools" allows the compilation to get a little further, but it still stops with the following error:

CC cpupower
./utils/idle_monitor/amd_fam14h_idle.o: In function `amd_fam14h_stop':
amd_fam14h_idle.c:(.text+0x3c3): undefined reference to libintl_gettext' ./utils/idle_monitor/cpupower-monitor.o: In function print_wrong_arg_exit':
cpupower-monitor.c:(.text+0x9): undefined reference to libintl_gettext' ./utils/idle_monitor/cpupower-monitor.o: In function print_results':

and so on. This has also been tested with buildroot-2015.11.1 using the default configuration. The kernel configuration selected was i386 (defconfig)

--- Comment #2 from Joergen Pihlflyckt <[email protected]> --- Yes!

I tested the patch on 2016.05, and it works. Thank you very much. Looks like we can close this bug very quickly ;-)

Is it possible to get this into the upcoming 2016.08 release?
