You can try the "compendium" ("memory") approach:

    msgmerge -o new_file.po -C file_with_old_translations.po \
       current_file.po pot_file.pot

file_with_old_translations.po is the version of the update-desktop-files
with your new translations.  I'm not sure whether 'msgmerge' accepts a
slightly broken compendium file, though; maybe, it accepts duplicate
entries.
