Translation injections is not enabled yet for the stable branch. It was
introduced very recently and a few details still needed work.

Please use the old scripts for now.

As I mentioned above, not everything is yet in place in order to enable
injection for all stable branches, so depending on the timeline you may need
to use the old create_tarball_kf5.rb script.


Albert, what should we do with the stable branch and the injection? If we did
enable it on i18n stable branches we would need to also to backport your
maerges of i18n and data stuff. Maybe it'd better to just enable it for a
subset of stable repositories right now, if really needed.
