Point taken.  I'll rearrange my argument then.  :)

Although I don't know much about the "open source localization business", I'm guessing you're probably not going to make much money from any software product if you have to provide the source as part of the deal.  I know that's not true across the board, but protection of intellectual property is usually critical when the object of the game is to make money.

If you want to localize the GUI,  that's a good thing to do.  To sell it, however, is a violation of the GPL.

Read the FAQ, question 1.4.  <http://ethereal.com/faq.html>http://ethereal.com/faq.html
    

I think you need to re-read that section.  It's perfectly OK to make money off of Ethereal - so long as you meet the GPL requirements.
