Sure.  I updated to svn r1884.  I also had to svn revert all the *.ts
files, which feels odd, but I did it, so that svn status produces no output.

This still works just as it did before, no obvious difference.

Same issue -- still the *.qm files are not getting built by "make
messages" when I do this.  And all the *.ts files are now modified
(looks like the build-debug.sh run does that).

Do you need to see one of my modified .ts files, or are you seeing this
behaviour as well?

Lastly, I notice that if I try

  cd ~bibletime/build && make bibletime_ui_es.qm

I get:

  make: *** No rule to make target `bibletime_ui_es.qm'.  Stop.

Even though that is where the top level make command generated them!
Odd.  So, there does not seem to be a make rule for generating each .qm
file from its .ts file?
