Ok I found the problem:
http://docs.python.org/2/library/gettext.html#id6

It seems to me that a lot of people should run into the same 'problem'.

Indeed I installed Pootle in a virtualenv (as recommended by the
documentation), however I have the iso-codes installed globally in the
system (in /usr/share/locale).

In Pootle test we have:
gettext.find('iso_639', languages=languages, all=True)

But without any other info gettext will only look into the virtualenv
and not in /usr/share/locale.

What would be a good workaround ?
1) Call gettext.bindtextdomain() before with /usr/share/locale
2) Call gettext.find() with localedir
3) Set sys.prefix
4) Create a symbolic link from the virtualenv to /usr/share/locale
5) Any other trick ?

Best regards,
