+For the new 0.12/trunk branches see the i18n/l10n section below for an '''[#Abouti18nl10nsupport important hint on egg creation]''' that applies to system wide installations as well.
 
 After you have installed the AnnouncerPlugin, you must carefully evaluate the modules you wish to use and enable them. The simplest method of doing this is through 0.11's built in Admin panels.

+Preparing the plugin from source requires the additional step of compiling message catalog files. Walk through:
+{{{
+cd announcerplugin
+python ./setup.py egg_info
+python ./setup.py compile_catalog -f
+python ./setup.py bdist_egg
+}}} 
+If you missed the 3rd step, you'll get an error in the 4th step complaining about missing `locale` directory.
+This is just a side-effect, because there are no complied message catalogs for inclusion into Python egg, hence the whole path is missing.[[BR]]
+To exclude translations marked as `# fuzzy` by the translator, you'll want to omit the extra `-f` argument to message catalog compilation.
+Again, for more details see the [t:wiki:CookBook/PluginL10N#Compileanduseit l10n cookbook page for Trac plugins].
