title: Django makemessages errors Unknown encoding "utf8"
body: <p>I installed python separated from yum.</p>
  <p>Now, I need to recompile the language pack for the OSQA system, but get this message:</p>
  <pre><code>Error: errors happened while running xgettext on __init__.py
  xgettext: ./Django-1.2.3/tests/regressiontests/views/__init__.py:1: Unknown encoding &quot;utf8&quot;. Proceeding with ASCII instead.
  xgettext: Non-ASCII string at ./Django-1.2.3/tests/regressiontests/views/__init__.py:7.
            Please specify the source encoding through --from-code or through a comment
            as specified in http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0263.html.
  </code></pre>
  <p>I tried to set encode at utf-8 in the manage.py file but it didn't work.</p>
  <p>Can someone help me to solve this issue?</p>
