libintl.8.dylib: mach-o, but wrong architecture (on configure of m4)

[askg]

I have performed a selfupdate and clean all. OS 10.5. MacBook Pro 13 "

Found this:

What's the history of your install, has it been around for a while? Also, what is the result of running

$ file /opt/local/lib/libintl.8.dylib

gosta-asks-macbook-pro:~ g$ file /opt/local/lib/libintl.8.dylib /opt/local/lib/libintl.8.dylib: Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386

Yes, it has been around for a while. And not only that. It is basically the result of using Apple's "Migration Assistant" from my old PowerPC-based iBook with Mac OS X 10.4. On that one I had MacPorts installed several years ago. And after the migration I just tried to update the installed programs that I wanted to use.

Going from 10.4 to 10.5 (or equivalent) or going from PowerPC to Intel really require a redo of your MacPorts install. See the Migration wiki page for details.

Ok, thanks. Guess I should have figured this out myself. Sorry for taking your time. I followed the guidelines in Wiki and it now works.
