+     "intltool is a set of tools to centralize translation of many different
+file formats using GNU gettext-compatible PO files.
+
+The intltool collection can be used to do these things:
+
+    Extract translatable strings from various source files (.xml.in,
+    glade, .desktop.in, .server.in, .oaf.in).
+
+    Collect the extracted strings together with messages from traditional
+    source files (.c, .h) in po/$(PACKAGE).pot.
+
+    Merge back the translations from .po files into .xml, .desktop and
+    oaf files. This merge step will happen at build resp. installation time.")
