autogen.sh runs glib-gettextize and intltoolize at the same time, which is considered incorrect #17

As per the gnome-common migration guide, this is incorrect and should be fixed.

In addition, per Philip's comment, we should not be using either of them at all - gettext has got all the functionality needed these days. Need to check this out and adjust scripts accordingly.

Looks like this is not that trivial and the rabbit's hole is deep as Tomboy actually uses both gettext and intltool and there's some logic related to plugin description translations I don't understand yet. Here's some more information on migrating from such a setup to pure gettext and that's quite some work: https://wiki.gnome.org/MigratingFromIntltoolToGettext.

So I'm leaving this out for now and if there's anyone interested in picking this, you are more than welcome.
