Description Evgeny Bobkin 2013-07-04 11:28:16 UTC 
why when I run an app, I have installed with jhbuild, under jhbuild shell with 

$ LANG="de_DE.utf8" strace -e trace=open gnome-clocks I  observe

open("/home/ibqn/opt/gnome//locale/de_DE.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/gnome-clocks.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/home/ibqn/opt/gnome//locale/de_DE/LC_MESSAGES/gnome-clocks.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/home/ibqn/opt/gnome//locale/de.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/gnome-clocks.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/home/ibqn/opt/gnome//locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/gnome-clocks.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

they are installed in share(( /home/ibqn/opt/gnome/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES !!!
Comment 1 Evgeny Bobkin 2013-07-04 11:30:20 UTC 
gnome-clocks sets:  

Intl.bindtextdomain (Config.GETTEXT_PACKAGE, Config.GNOMELOCALEDIR);

and the value of GNOMELOCALEDIR is:  /home/ibqn/opt/gnome//locale
Comment 2 Frederic Peters 2013-07-04 11:32:19 UTC 
Reassigning to gnome-clocks, then. It lost the /share/ part somehow.
