I don't really know. Without this it tries to install them to 
/gnu/store/...qt5/translations, so I tried to make a directory that would make 
sense. In this patch I've changed it to just /translations, but I still didn't 
see it in .guix-profile/share/{de,ro}/LC_MESSAGES/, so I don't really know what 
to do with it.

I think library works best. It can interact with gnome-keyring and the like
but would never be installed on its own. Plus as just library it doesn't go
on to the next line :)
