Hi Charles,

I can speak for Damned Lies, unfortunately not much about the build
system :-/
Damned Lies can support custom pot file build tools (like your
potgen-shotwell script) if it respects two things:
- it doesn't require building sources
- it uses "standard" script language (bash, python, perl, ...)

Now when I see the number of strings (<30) in the shotwell-extras pot
file, I wonder if it's really worth the trouble separating the pot
files...
