Public bug reported:
The current webapp for Gmail adds entries in the Launcher and Messaging
Indicator to compose new messages and to display the Inbox count.
These entries are in English and need to be localizable.
This means:
1. Marking the strings for translation in the script (it seems they already are)
2. Initialize gettext in the code, using the correct translation domain
3. Getting the build system to extract those strings and put them on a gettext translation template (.pot) file using dh_translations
4. Add 'X-Ubuntu-Use-Langpack: yes' to debian/control's source record
5. Get the translations loaded on the desktop at runtime.
1 to 4 are I believe fairly trivial (although I haven't looked in detail
at the code and the packaging). For 5. someone on the Desktop or Webapps
team will probably have to look at how to do this, since I'm not very
familiar with how the plumbing works in terms of integration between
desktop and webapp JS scripts.
