d.mon strings from grassmods po files not localised at runtime

[msieczka]

d.mon strings from grassmods po files are not localised at runtime. See e.g. for GRASS built --with-nls, run in pl_PL.UTF-8 locale:

GRASS 6.4.1svn (spearfish60):~ > d.mon stop=x0
Monitor 'x0' terminated

The message is in English, although Polish translation is there - source:/grass/branches/releasebranch_6_4/locale/po/grassmods_pl.po@head#L15822​ :

#: ../display/d.mon/pgms/stop.c:70
#, c-format
msgid "Monitor '%s' terminated"
msgstr "Monitor '%s' został zamknięty"

Other strings from grassmods are translated OK at runtime.

Replying to msieczka:

d.mon strings from grassmods po files are not localised at runtime.

This is because PACKAGE doesn't get defined. Module.make and Multi.make define it as "grassmods", while Lib.make defines it as "grasslibs". display/d.mon/pgms/Makefile doesn't include any of these, so the mon.* programs don't use any message catalogue.

It should suffice to add:

PACKAGE = "grassmods"

to the top of display/d.mon/pgms/Makefile.
