Hi,

I ran into similar problems earlier this year. I can't recall the exact 
packages, but the solution was to add in configure.ac *before* 
AM_GLIB_GNU_GETTEXT this line:

IT_PROG_INTLTOOL([0.35.0])

I hope this works in your project too.

Like you mention in your post, the version of intltool has been updated in 
Chinook compared to what it is in the doctools devkit and the one in 
doctools still works with the old ac macros. The doctools devkit should - 
and probably will - get updated too in the near future.

Cheers,
  Juha
