Description Jakub Steiner 2012-12-20 16:00:57 UTC 
The only way to get SVG files translatable is to treat them as HELP_FILES rather than HELP_MEDIA. However, placing HELP_FILES inside a subdirectory will not work, they need to live in the root.

Either HELP_FILES should be allowed to live in ./figures or HELP_MEDIA should be processed for translation in case they are SVG.

(see gnome-getting-started-docs) for a use case).
Comment 1 Shaun McCance 2012-12-21 02:57:10 UTC 
yelp.m4 line 90, there's a single itstool call that outputs all the translated HELP_FILES for a language. But itstool doesn't recreate directory structures when invoked like this. So either itstool has to learn how to somehow do this (not sure the best approach on that) or yelp.m4 has to call itstool once per file (slow).
