[Xfce-i18n] daily translations builds ?

[piotr maliński]

There can be separate packages for translations like KDE has ->
kde-i18n. If we build packages with *mo translations files for each
language distro maintainers could convert them to their linux/unix
packages easily. They would just overwrite/update existing
translations.
