Same as bug 10968, and bug 8086, and multiple more in this bugzilla Stale files, like LINGUAS, in po/ should be removed in order to get proper tarballs, the list of localizations should get autogenerated, otherwise localization files end up missing from the tarball, like: the configure script at xfce4-wmdock-plugin/configure has: configure: ALL_LINGUAS="ar ast ca cs da de el en_GB es eu fr gl hu id it ja kk ko lt lv messages nl pt pt_BR ru sk sv tr ug uk ur ur_PK zh_CN zh_TW " but the tarball doesn't have .po files for these: ar.po es.po ko.po lt.po nl.po sk.po tr.po zh_TW.po and then: $ export LINGUAS="es" $ ./configure $ make ends up with: Making all in po make[2]: Entering directory '/var/tmp/portage/xfce-extra/xfce4-wmdock-plugin-0.6.0/work/xfce4-wmdock-plugin-0.6.0/po' make[2]: *** No rule to make target 'es.gmo', needed by 'all-yes'. Stop. make[2]: Leaving directory '/var/tmp/portage/xfce-extra/xfce4-wmdock-plugin-0.6.0/work/xfce4-wmdock-plugin-0.6.0/po' Makefile:397: recipe for target 'all-recursive' failed make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/var/tmp/portage/xfce-extra/xfce4-wmdock-plugin-0.6.0/work/xfce4-wmdock-plugin-0.6.0' Makefile:328: recipe for target 'all' failed make: *** [all] Error 2
And it's not only a problem for packagers, it's a problem for source based distribution users too, so http://bugs.gentoo.org/508486 was opened
Another minor issue that you might want to fix, `make check` fails with po/ directory because panel-plugin/wmdock.desktop.in.in is missing from LINGUAS.skip file Fix: echo panel-plugin/wmdock.desktop.in.in >> po/POTFILES.skip It's so minor that I won't bother opening own bug for it, someone who fixes this bug can add it while at it
