Public bug reported:

The various locale translations (e.g. country and timezone names) are
not translated through gettext but through a custom resource method
(http://userguide.icu-project.org/locale/resources).

The source translation files are only stored in ICU's source control
(http://source.icu-
project.org/repos/icu/icu/trunk/source/data/locales/).  In the tarball
that ICU ships, the locale data has all been globbed together into a
binary file (source/data/in/icudt40l.dat).

Not sure the standard method for fixing this.  (A) Encourage upstream to
use gettext (doesn't seem likely) or (B) download the source data and
transform it to gettext as part of the build process so Launchpad can
grab the po/pot files?
