Dear maintainer:

During a rebuild of all packages in unstable using gettext 0.23.1,
which is available in experimental, your package failed to build:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This error seems that it was caused here.

https://salsa.debian.org/debian/uim/-/blob/master/po/Makefile.in.in?ref_type=heads#L101-102

and when adding --verbose for intltool-update, it tells failure about
building uim.pot.

I've checked encoding in POTFILES.in, uim 1.8.8 contains the following
files that encoding is not UTF-8.

EUC-JP (LF) uim-1.8.8/scm/ajax-ime-custom.scm
EUC-JP (LF) uim-1.8.8/scm/ajax-ime.scm

I found that if these files are not listed in POTFILES.in as a test
case, it succeeds to build uim.pot.

I'm not sure how above files should be handled to fix this FTBFS,
so want to hear maintainer's opinion. (Is it okay just convert into
UTF-8?)

Notes:

- Many packages may be fixed by using this in configure.in:

AM_GNU_GETTEXT_REQUIRE_VERSION([0.21])

In this case, I think it has nothing to do with it.
