The pot file in those haven't changed since autotools, so the i18n
support should be as it was, unless damned-lies can't use the cached
version of the pot files.

Related to this, when migrating your module, please do keep in mind that
Damned Lies support for Meson modules is still incomplete, see
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=783099.

As Piotr reported elsewhere [1], totem-pl-parser, nautilus-sendto, and
gnome-bluetooth have broken/incomplete i18n support as a result.

Your help with fixing #783099 would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Please do continue to fix bugs in the meson build for your modules.


Thanks Jeremy! This is a good rule to follow.

I do encourage projects to remove their Autotools build systems as soon 
as reasonable, since having to support two build systems is causing 
many problems. But it's probably not reasonable to do so at this point 
until after you've first branched for gnome-3-26.
