Bug Description
The file format of extensionless files cannot be specified in intltool, and they are interpreted as C files by default.
This causes, for example, 'Foo' strings in extensionless Python scripts not to be extracted (they must be specified as valid C strings with double quotes, e.g. "Foo" to be recognized for extraction).
The other problem is that strings containing arguments are then either not recognized as python-format (they are marked as c-format) or worse, not marked as python-format at all (e.g. those with named arguments "%(foo)s").
This is somehow related (perhaps a consequence) of bug 377872

Yes, it's a consequence of bug 377872, meaning that it's a duplicate :)
