intltool is unmaintained upstream and it currently has a couple of bugs that are very problematic. One of them is that various formats are not detected by intltool-update:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/intltool/+bug/544445

https://bugs.launchpad.net/intltool/+bug/1039983


I have submitted a simple patch that fixes the issue, but it is unlikely to get merged and released:

I'm asking to include the patch in the Fedora package.
