Bug Description
Original po filenames are not preserved in the Launchpad translation export. For example, in pidgin++ ms_MY.po becomes ms.po and my_MM.po becomes my.po [1].
Therefore, the source code should not rely on the original file names, ever, because Launchpad is not smart enough to do a simple thing:
* Import foo.po
* Export foo.po
This forces the developer to either rename the original po files with whatever Launchpad decides to like, or write scripts like this one [2] and run it whenever a merge needs to be performed.
