Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
I've found a strange make-messages.py/xgettext behaviour: make-
messages.py/xgettext is able to extract utf8-strings from *one* file! But
as soon as there are *more than one* files to process, make-
messages.py/xgettext fails.
This problem has something to do with the way of xgettext being called:
When a pot file already exists (e. g. if xgettext is called on the
*second* file to be processed), xgettext is called with the "--omit-
header" option... and will fail on utf8 encoded files. Without "--omit-
header" the message extraction is working alright.
Maybe make-messages.py could be changed to regard this, so one could use
utf8 encoded messages for translation?
Translation of utf8 encoded strings seems to work without problems...
