Description
If you run makemessages and you end up with the error message "Unable to find a locale path to store translations for file [...]", you get a lot of temporary files left over that you need to clean up.
The fix is pretty trivial so a PR is on the way.

Verified regression test fails on main. Speaking of which, the regression test targets the additional case Anders found, so the title of the patch might be edited to be made more general, but I will leave that for others.
