 The following english messages are not encoded in UTF-8 which causes
 troubles when using tools to translate them. PO files are typically UTF-8
 encoded.

 /pidgin/plugins/gestures/gestures.c
     323            "Drag the middle mouse button to perform certain
 actions:\n"
     324            " â<80>¢ Drag down and then to the right to close a
 conversat    324 ion.\n"
     325            " â<80>¢ Drag up and then to the left to switch to the
 previo    325 us "
     326            "conversation.\n"
     327            " â<80>¢ Drag up and then to the right to switch to the
 next     327 "
     328            "conversation."),

 If I try to redecode this file I get the following error:

 $ LC_ALL=C iconv -f utf8 -t latin1 <gestures.c >test
 iconv: illegal input sequence at position 8542

 Please, use UTF-8 encoding for these messages or replace the symbol used
 with a '-'
