Check dependencies while doing ./configure

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. ./configure --enable-lang-all --enable-gtk2 --enable-cli --prefix=/usr
2. make install

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

expected output = it happily installs

here is what i see:

jason@ubuntu:~/Desktop/rubyripper-0.5.0$ ./configure --enable-lang-all
--enable-gtk2 --enable-cli --prefix=/usr
Creating the Makefile...
A summary of your settings:

Using the following locations for install:
* Executables: /usr/bin
* Localization files: /usr/share/locale
* Icon file: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps
* Desktop file: /usr/share/applications
* Ruby library: /usr/lib/site_ruby/1.8

Gtk2 frontend will be installed
Cli frontend will be installed
Languages to be installed: nl, de, hu, ru, es

You can now run make install
Make sure you've got the writing privileges

jason@ubuntu:~/Desktop/rubyripper-0.5.0$ make install
`ruby configure --update-lang` #update the locale files
configure:52:in `require': no such file to load -- gettext/utils (LoadError)
        from configure:52:in `update_lang'
        from configure:105
    from configure:83:in `each'
    from configure:83
make: *** [all] Error 1

What version of rubyripper are you using? On what operating system? Are you
using the gtk2 or the commandline interface?

rubyripper .5. attempting to install it via command line.

Please provide any additional information below.

i've installed all of the recommended packages.

You need ruby gettext bindings obviously. Perhaps the ruby-gettext-dev or 
whatever your 
distro calls it. The error you'll see mentions it can't be found. 

I'll keep the bug open however. In the configure procedure there should be some 
check to 
find all programs in the system. I did rename the summary though.

Thank you. I installed libgettext-ruby1.8 and libgettext-ruby-util packages for
ubuntu and I was able to resolve the issue. Thanks again for your help and for 
the
great program.

A dependency check is now included when doing ./configure. I consider this one 
fixed.
