Download translation from launchpad and compile it to use it in application

Question

I can download translations (.po and .mo) from launchpad. I want to use a translation for GWoffice and I don't want to wait when the translation will be released via the official way. How can I compile a translation into the current installation of the app?

msgfmt -o lang.mo lang.po should do the work. Then you just need to replace current translation. dpkg -L gwoffice | grep "\.mo$" should help you locate needed files.
