Because gettext will try and search for files present in $DOMAIN_DATA/$language/LC_MESSAGES/data.mo file, AFAIK.
It's a completely other subject I'll be sure to describe more in a RFC as soon as I have the time, but in short, I'm aiming at making the server strings (for quests) and the client data (items description, ...) translatable and put them into two mo files using, for instance po4all.
Then, I'll test and make those two be part of the update data.
My problem is that I haven't found a way to make gettext use PhysFS yet, so my only way to deal with those two files is to copy them in the update folder in the relevant place, and read from there.

If you've got some useful hints about that. I'd be glad to get to know them, of course. :)
