Yeah I know, it's a hassle. But fixing this would involve quite some
hacks in the code (it's not just the ui xml files, also icons and other
installed data) to find this data. Unfortunately, autotools is not
really friendly in this way. It might be possible to build binaries
which have local resources (like OS X bundles) so it can be tried out
without installing, but I'm not sure it's worth the effort.
