Enabled localized menu of xscreensaver-6.06

Hi,

I tried re-compile xscreensaver package which included locale data of each languages.

Since I'm not heavy linux user, I have no idea whether following script is correct or not, but it worked anyway, so far.
Please let me know if there is anything I should fix in this script.

Is there a reason you changed "make install-strip" to "make install"?

Thank you for your comment.
There is no special reason, but when I add "install_strip" at that line, the slackbuild doesn't create $PKG/usr/share/locale.
I have not found its solution yet.
I appreciate any advice to workaround this.

I modified the slackbuild like below.
This script was also able to create locale data and its package size is smaller than before.

Sorry for my frequent posts.

I noticed that there were several missing locales to be created in po directory during compilation.
So, I modified my former slackbuild like below.

The created locale data with this workaround are
"be da de el es et fi fr hu it ja ko lt nb nl pl pt pt_BR ru sk sv tr uk vi wa zh_CN zh_TW".

I know this looks dirty fix, but it creats most locale data (*.gmo) except "ca".
Fedora's spec file said that ca.po in xscreensaver-6.06/po/ seems to be broken.
[Note]
For example in case of uk.po, almost all translation date at msgstr lines are empty.
So, even if uk.po is compiled to uk.gmo, its translation data will be almost the same as that of English.

I appreciate any advice and pointing.
Sorry for my poor English.
