I don't get it. Why should they be packaged with source?Anyone having source and wants to use lyx, is building too, or not?
Because this is adding yet another dependency on the gettext tools. People who intend to build LyX are not going to fiddle with po files and therefore they can use directly the gmo files that are provided. This has been done like that as long as I can remember.
