translations.launchpad.net: how to get PO for updating Debian packages?



Hi,

== Short version ==
I want to update PO files with Ubuntu site data.  So far no luck.  Help
needed.

== Long story ==
One of my packages got a translation bug report pointing me to:
 https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/saucy/+source/im-config/+pots/im-config

FYI:
 * I am the solo upstream and maintainer of im-config.
 * I only have Ubuntu access to read their Launchpad pages.

 (I even see my name listed under "By" without my knowledge.  It seems
 to happen often on Launchpad.  I do not mind listed as upstream but this
 makes me uneasy.  I do not even have any Japanese translation here but 
 it is listed 100% translated with my name.)

With login and e-mail (after resetting the forgotten password), I should
be able to get tar... but web page respond as:

| Not allowed here
| Sorry, you don't have permission to access this page or the information
| in this page is not shared with you.
| 
| You are logged in as osamu.

So far no luck.  Sigh ...  I do not understand why readonly access is
restricted.

Anyway, it seems plenty of PO files are there.  Packages seem to be
found as
https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/saucy/+source/<packagename>
(and select all translation.  You need to be logged in)

Is there any easy ways to get latest PO files from Ubuntu?

I have over 30 packages and going through awkward clicking is pain.  I
only need effective read-only quick access (hopefully with scripted
wget or dget like commands).  I just want as easy access as ones for
the patches and packages: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/im-config

If anyone have good idea, let me know.

Regards,

Osamu

PS: I also wonder if there is some generic script to update *.desktop
files using PO files.  I am about to make a local shell script hack
using xgettext.
