No idea.  Which codebase did you use anyway?

I tink the problem is that gnunet-setup does not expect to read gnunetd.conf 
but gnunet.conf (the _user_ configuration file). Just try without -c.

Anyone who want to help with translations should go here:

http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/registry.cgi?domain=GNUnet

This is a central site for gettext translations and the site distributes the 
translation work into per-language translation teams.  Anyone can join these 
teams!  So if you want to help translate, go there and follow the process 
described on their webpage.  This should avoid duplication of effort.

Well, that is certainly a possibility, but what the menus look like is left to 
the distributions anyway, so contact your favorite package 
maintainer(s).  :-)
