+Subject: [PATCH] libmate-panel-applet/Makefile.am: Fix build with gettext 0.22
+
+With gettext-0.22 we are getting build errors like:
+/usr/bin/msgfmt --desktop --keyword Name --keyword Description --template org.mate.panel.TestApplet.mate-panel-applet.desktop.in -d ../po -o org.mate.panel.TestApplet.mate-panel-applet
+/usr/bin/msgfmt: no input file should be given if --desktop and -d are specified
+Try '/usr/bin/msgfmt --help' for more information.
+make[3]: *** [Makefile:1035: org.mate.panel.TestApplet.mate-panel-applet] Error 1
+make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
