Hi,

I don't know if I understood you right, but you have more than one .pot
files there? So find-lang will find only one? If so, I had the same
problem with gxine. Here's the solution:

# Not supported yet - check bz #213041
# %find_lang %{name} --all-name
/usr/lib/rpm/find-lang.sh %{buildroot} %{name} --all-name

But it seems that the bug was already resolved in RAWHIDE, I'll try
it...
