Sorry for the confusion.  But I confirmed that po/scim.pot is
distributed with released tarballs.  Is there any reason why it's not in
CVS?

I know in SCIM you generate POTFILE from POTFILE.in, then use gettext to
generate scim.pot from source according to POTFILE.  I don't have much
experience on preparing .pot files (most of my l10n work is just
translating from .pot to .po), but most of the projects I translated
have .pot file in CVS.  I know you have to manually update them with
gettext and then check in, but you are going to do so for .po files
anyway.  So isn't putting scim.pot in CVS a good idea?
