Hallo Niyas

We experienced the exact same problem in Virtaal. If I remember
correctly, the issue was _partly_ solved with a call to
glade.bindtextdomain().  The other part of it is solved by the code in
this file:

http://translate.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/translate/src/trunk/virtaal/virtaal/support/libi18n/locale.py?view=log
(I am partly guessing the URL, so you might need to look around if I got
it wrong.)

Unfortunately I don't have web access right now, so I can't get to our
original bug and discussions about the topic, but hopefully this helps
you in the meanwhile.

You might also be able to get a developer for Virtaal in #pootle on
irc.freenode.net - be on the lookout for "walterl" who is probably your
best source of information if my advice above does not help.

Keep well
Friedel
