The problem is not the Python binding of gettext, it is the gettext library itself. This is not a Python library, but a system library.

You can install this on a debian-like system (Debian, Ubuntu, Raspbian, and Knoppix):

sudo apt-get install gettext

For other operating systems, you can probably build it from the source files, or look for a repository that makes binaries.
