Public bug reported:

Hi,

This is just a heads up from upstream that the compiled message
catalogues (MO files) for translations previously bundled with horizon
will be removed for the Juno release. PO files will remain.

MO files are effectively binary files easily generated from the PO files
per language, using gettext. A script has also been provided for
conveniences (run_tests.sh --compilemessages) - but direct use of
gettext is also fairly straightforward.

Other distributions, including debian upstream, are compiling these
messages as part of their packaging

To ensure that your users continue to be able to use translations in
openstack-dashboard, it might be worth checking if you rely on the
upstream MO files, and if you do, generating them in-package instead.


Something like this also works:
cd horizon && django-admin compilemessages && cd ..
cd openstack_dashboard && django-admin compilemessages && cd ..
# remove unnecessary .po files
find . -name "django*.po" -exec rm -f '{}' \;
