pip install = IOError: [Errno 2] No translation file found for domain: 'dabo'

[CarlFK]

This issue has existed for years. I think I logged it in previous issue tracker. it is mentioned in #12

    raise IOError(ENOENT, 'No translation file found for domain', domain)
IOError: [Errno 2] No translation file found for domain: 'dabo'

For me it is low priority, I have simple enough workaround:

cd $(python -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print get_python_lib()")
git clone https://github.com/dabodev/dabo.git dabo-master
ln -s dabo-master/dabo
cd -

I think this duplicates #14

The locales are not installed by setup.py. A quick fix is copying the locale folder from the source directory to the place where Dabo is installed.
