[pve-devel] [PATCH proxmox-i18n v2 1/2] makefile: prefer using xgettext over msgcat

[Maximiliano Sandoval]

For concatenating .pot files. From [1]:

> To concatenate POT files, better use xgettext, not msgcat, because
> msgcat would choke on the undefined charsets in the specified POT
> files.

Differences from v1:
 - Add dependencies to control file
 - Remove new subprojects as they have to be added manually anyways
