Ah, that's a bug in meld. It shouldn't do
gettext.bindtextdomain, but locale.bindtextdomain (although
gtk.glade.bindtextdomain has the same effect).

It is intentional that the Python gettext implementation and
the C library's gettext implementation are separate. If you
want to use the C library's gettext, you should use the
locale.* functions; if you want the pure-Python
implementation, use gettext.*.

Closing as a third-party bug.

You have to download meld from meld.sourceforge.net. Then
build it and run under some locale, say ru_RU.utf8. You'll
see untranslated UI under Fedora Core 5. If you'll add a
call to gtk.glade.bindtextdomain to meld, you'll see
interface translated. Thus I suppose that gettext isn't
initialized properly as in original bug.

Can you please provide precise instructions on how to
reproduce the problem? It works fine for me.

This code cures the problem, but of course it's just a
workaround

gtk.glade.bindtextdomain(APP, DIR)
gtk.glade.textdomain(APP)
