Compiling on macOS BigSur

Hi I'm trying to compile tuxera's ntfs-3g by myself because homebrew has blocked all packages requiring FUSE.

So I tried these commands: git clone https://github.com/tuxera/ntfs-3g.git ./autogen.sh ./configure make

but when running make it begins to compile but at the end it reports that: Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64: "_libintl_setlocale", referenced from: _utils_set_locale in utils.o ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64 clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) make[2]: *** [ntfsfix] Error 1 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2

How can I solve that?

I think this is a problem with your local headers and libraries. It's looking for libintl_setlocale but libintl.h is not present in Xcode's SDKs so you must have installed libintl manually. However the library cannot be found in the library search paths. With only Xcode's SDK and no user-installed third party headers there's no problem compiling on Big Sur. Please check your /usr/local directory for any clues.

I have /usr/local/lib/libintl.a installed by Homebrew via brew install gettext (version 0.21)

Should I remove it to build ntfs-3g? Or give it some clue on where to find the lib?

Update:

This fixed it in my case:

LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib -lintl" ../configure

Same issue here, seems like the build script does not look for libintl correctly.
