Perhaps I'm wrong, but I thought it's enough to just create a
locale/<lang>/LC_MESSAGES/django.po file
in your project tree

and then call manage.py makemessages -s -l<lang>


You shouldn't be manually creating these files at all, django provides
tools that do that for you (and spell LC_MESSAGES correctly etc). You
simply run django-admin.py makemessages -l<lang>  from the top level
of each app that is to be translated, and it correctly populates
./locale/<lang>/LC_MESSAGES/django.po with the translations that have
been marked up in that apps templates and source code.

Fully agree. Just started working with Django. I used makemessages as the doc (and you) suggested.

I just forgot about it when writing this post.

I'd suggest a thorough re-read of the documentation if you ever find
yourself manually creating pofiles.

Cheers

Tom
