Run "update-po.sh" whenever new gettext() strings are added, or existing
ones (the original English text) are changed, so the changes are made
visible in the POT and PO files.

Run "update-po.sh" prior to a release, so any translations of the ".desktop"
file's strings get put into the ".desktop" file.

Thanks to Karl Ove Hufthammer for explaining these steps.

-----------
Both steps are the same? Do we ever run create_pot.sh?


Run "check_translations.sh file.po" when you add a new translation, it should 
look at the different places where the translation should be listed and tell 
you if there is any problem.
