I'm trying to install devel/gettext but unfortunately it is failing
saying:

install-info

for /usr/local/info/autosprintf.info
*** Error code 1

What can I do to over come this?
cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo/install-info
make
make install

Unfortunately I don't have that directory, I only have /usr/src/sys
Do I need to install all sources?

Yes - somehow you are missing this utility which comes standard with
FreeBSD.

Unless you're sure you're only missing this one program, though, it
will be best if you do a full recompile of the sources as described in
the handbook, to repair any other damage that may exist on your
machine.
