After this comment: #2 (comment)
I decided to re-open this issue with another title.
I18n building process does not follow the standard rules:
cmake .. (should configure but actually it compiles)
make (should compile but actually does nothing)
make install (actually installs, this is correct)

What do you expect from configuration? Another level of inception? Is it really worth unless cmake is able to do same in just one easy step?

I know that it seems to be pointless but I would like to see make to compile in place and make install to install... is it asking to much?

If you want another reason why this should be fixed... then think about this: now you have to make a "make install" to compile and test for errors during compilation of .po files... compilation/test should always be a separate stage from install ...

Should not be to hard to do it properly ... Can someone write down what exactly is expected here? Just "mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. ; make; make install"? Any configuration options, additional make targets?

"mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. ; make; make install" should suffice IMHO
Thank you very much @StefanBruens !
