RHEL7.x is using 0.18, and has been doing that for a few point releases.
RHEL7.4 will apparently have gettext 0.19, but that's not released yet..
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS has 0.19, Ubuntu 14.04 had 0.18. Debian
stable/oldstable are both on 0.19.
However, I was able to build spice-gtk git master on an up to date RHEL
7.3 after changing the required gettext version to 0.18, so I'd just
lower the requirement.
