[Gaim-i18n] i18 changes: intltool-update replaces update.pl

[Bjoern V. <bj...@cs...>]

Hello!

Richard Laager has commited a patch which adds intltool integration to
Gaim:

   SF Patch #1265514

   This patch adds intltool integration. It works here; let me know if it
   breaks anything for you.
   ----------------------------

The already applied patch including comments can be found here:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=3Ddetail&aid=3D1265514&group_=
id=3D235&atid=3D300235

The update script po/update.pl is already removed with this patch. As
far as I can see, intltool-update can now be used as a replacement of
po/POTFILES.in:

Checking po/POTFILES.in consistency
-----------------------------------

Old: ./update.pl -M
New: intltool-update -m

I miss the functionality of ./update.pl which shows files in
po/POTFILES.in which do _NOT_ have i18n strings. But this is not a big
issue for me.

Update of a specific translation
--------------------------------

Old: ./update.pl XX  (XX..language code)
New: intltool-update XX

Now my questions:

1) Are you happy with the intltool-patch? I mean, does it work
    correctly?

2) Are you interested in a new update.pl script? I'm familiar with the
    old update.pl code, because I patched it. I think, it's not difficult
    to write a new update.pl script which is basically a wrapper around
    intltool-update.

3) Is it possible to use intltool for the Windows NSIS translations in
    src/win32/nsis/translations? Updating the Windows NSIS translations
    is still a manual job.
