One .po file instead of several

[Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@hungry.com>]

I found it easier to work on one .po file when translating d-i instead
of all the small ones.  To make this possible, I wrote the following
script.  It should be executed from the debian-installer directory.
Run

  ./gettext-helper export fr

to extract one fr.po with all the text and all the available french
translations.  Edit the file fr.po to update the translations, and run

  ./gettext-helper import fr

to update or create fr.po in the modules directories.

Please let me know if you find this script useful.
