Changes to ubuntu-docs build

[Matthew East]

That's correct, and consistent with what I said earlier in the thread
(you can trust me on these things!), except that we primarily use the
bzr branch exports for translations, rather than the source package.

So it is enough that the pot file has been updated in the branch
(which Jeremy has done).

(Apologies for top posting)
