a program's messages in a language other than English, you need an

implementation of the Gettext API. Some operating systems have this

built-in (e.g., Linux, NetBSD, Solaris), for other systems you can

download an add-on package from here: http://www.postgresql.org/~petere/

gettext.html. If you are using the Gettext implementation in the GNU C

download an add-on package from here: http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/

bsd-gettext/. If you are using the Gettext implementation in the GNU C

library then you will additionally need the GNU Gettext package for some

utility programs. For any of the other implementations you will not need

it.
