This patch: http://public.kde.planetmirror.com/pub/kde/devel/gettext-kde/  
Makes gettext work for translatting KDE applications and it is totally necesary 
if you are developing an app and want to translate it: 
This directory contains a version of gettext-0.10.35, patched 
for KDE's purposes. 
 
The patch (which can be found in kdesdk/scripts/gettext.patch) 
adds support for context translations [i18n("verb", "save");] 
and for plural handling [i18n("1 file", "%n files", n);] 
 
Context translation creates a msgid starting with _: 
  The comment starts after that, and ends at the first litteral \n 
  For instance _:verb\nsave 
A plural form creates a msgid starting with _n: 
  The singular form starts after that, and the plural form starts after the \n 
  For instance _n:1 file\n%n files 
 
Installation 
============ 
tar xvzf gettext-0.10.35-kde.tar.gz 
cd gettext-0.10.35-kde 
/configure 
make 
 
Do NOT run make install after that. 
Copy src/xgettext and src/msgmerge to somewhere in your PATH, then run 
configure 
so that it finds it there, and finally run 
make -f admin/Makefile.common package-messages 
to generate the .pot file[s].
