+Description: Stub and lightweight internationalization utilities
+ gettext-tiny provides lightweight replacements for tools typically used from
+ the GNU gettext suite. The most notable component is "msgfmt" which is used to
+ create binary translation files in the ".mo" format out of textual input files
+ in ".po" format. This is the most important tool for building software from
+ source, because it is used from the build processes of many software packages.
+ .
+ Other parts of gettext-tiny such as "xgettext" and "msgmerge" are still stubs,
+ but they are sufficient to build many packages.
