thanks for the report.

2. I have traced the "svn.xfce.org" and used "sudo apt-get source xarchiver"

> I found the pot file didn't include all the interface's strings.
> Most fo the non-included strings show in menu and the file browser window.

the best way is to contact xarchiver upstream on the xfce4 i18n mailing
list. However they are not working on a new branch of xarchiver and I don't
think they'll change much on the 0.3 series. But for translating the current
package even with missing pot entries you can go to
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/+source/xarchiver/+translations
and start translating what is in dapper now. Although I am not sure how much
time is left till rosetta translation freeze.
