I commited a fix[1] and added a section about this to the wiki i18n tips article[2].
Chris, please close the ticket if the pootle helper works now with my activity.

daniel, thanks for the patch, I will review the error logs of the pootle pot-generator cron job tonight and close the ticket if it is all clear for graphplotter.

Sugar activities encode strings in UTF-8 by default. I removed the unnecessary coding header from graph.py and I see that xgettext doesn't like it.
The non-ascii character is the Pi letter used in the radian scale.
http://git.sugarlabs.org/graph-plotter/mainline/blobs/master/gtk3modules/graph.py#line470
But it isn't a message to be translated and I didn't use a _()
The error says that you can specify the source encoding modifying the pootle helper. If you think that the pootle helper can't assume the encoding, I have no problem adding again the coding header to the file.
