No, the fi_brokenbar change is not necessary.  The patch added support
to the Finnish layout for several characters (<, >, |, and the broken
pipe/bar).  But upstream took only <, >, and |, saying that the broken
bar was too unusual to consume one of the reserved keys that were meant
for future extensions.  There are other ways to type it.  See the
upstream bug about it:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20300

Debian knew that documentation section was not quite right, but they
didn't seem to know about our patch to it.  I forwarded it on:

As for the pot file, I had assumed it had to be a part of the source
package, not the binary package, but I see that other packages merely
generate the pot file during build.  Is that really enough for Rosetta
to find?  i.e. It actually builds the package and then grabs the pot
file?  Interesting.  I couldn't find any documentation on that process
with a quick search.  I'm attaching a debdiff that does this.  If this
is correct, I'll file a Debian bug about it.
