No, for example:
car...@pinux:~/grubprova$ cat test.sh
#!/bin/bash
export TEXTDOMAIN="testscript"
export TEXTDOMAINDIR="./locale"
echo $(gettext "hello world")
car...@pinux:~/grubprova$
car...@pinux:~/grubprova$ tree
.
|-- locale
| |-- ca
| | `-- LC_MESSAGES
| | `-- testscript.mo
| |-- ca...@euro.po
| `-- test.pot
`-- test.sh
3 directories, 4 files
I mean, the script needs to tell where the locale directory is located.
As far as I know even if it's in the standard locations.
