Description

Currently one cannot translate “data/tails-installer.desktop” through Transifex.

This should be fixed by using intltool during the build process.

Only this one desktop file need to be translatable, as that is the only one we use.

liveusb-creator uses a Makefile + distutils + an old mki18n.py from
2003. The i18n stuff is run from the Makefile, and implemented in
mki18n.py; presumably adding the 2 or 3 missing intltool-* commands in
there should be doable. It may even be that a newer version of
mki18n.py already does this. I admit that one is tricky to do “the
right way”.
