Debian and ArchLinux (and maybe more) patched their "intltool" package to use a lock file. But this lock file is not removed after its use and so "make distcheck" complains about it.
See also: https://gitlab.xfce.org/apps/mousepad/-/merge_requests/27 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=991623 https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/67098 This is release critical as "make distcheck" is a crucial step to ensure we can create sane release tarballs. In case anyone wonders why CI was not affected: CI uses "intltool 0.51.0-5ubuntu1" but the patches entered in "intltool 0.51.0-5.1". I'm no Autotools expert, if there is a better solution or workaround, I'd be happy.
