A question about translations

Hi.

I finally decided to add translation support to
xfce4-xkb-plugin, but I ran into some problems.

Here's what I did:

  * marked all translatable string with _(s);
  * added AC_PROG_INTLTOOL to configure.ac;
  * added po to SUBDIRS in Makefile.am;
  * created a po/ dir with POTFILES.in and ChangeLog;
  * added -DPACKAGE_LOCALE_DIR=\"$(localedir)\" to
    xfce4_xkb_plugin_CFLAGS in panel-plugin/Makefile.am;
  * added @INTLTOOL_DESKTOP_RULE@ in panel-plugin/Makefile.am;
  * ran ./autogen.sh;
  * ran make xfce4-xkb-plugin.pot from po/;
  * copied xfce4-xkb-plugin.pot to bg.po and translated
    the messages;
  * ran make && su -c "make install";
  * export LC_MESSAGES=bg and restarted the panel to
    test the translation.

The bg.mo file installed properly in
$PREFIX/share/locale/bg/LC_MESSAGES/xfce4-xkb-plugin.mo.

Unfortunately the messages remained in english, so
my question is - how can I check what went wrong and
why the translation does not load?

btw, the .desktop file translation works fine - the name
and comment for the plugin appear in bulgarian in the
plugin add dialog.
