gtk12-config doen't recognize libintl

[Tilman Linneweh <tilman arved de>]

Hi

My gtk12-config doesn't show -lintl:

[tilman tl tilman]$ gtk12-config --libs
-L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgtk12 -lgdk12 -L/usr/local/lib 
-Wl,-E -lgmodule12 -lglib12 -lXext -lX11 -lm

My Hosts OS is FreeBSD. The libintl.so and libintl.a are in /usr/local/lib.

I can only compile gtk-applications if i add -lintl in the Makefiles.

Any idea what could be the problem?
