You really should use the -c / --check option of msgfmt. Then the warning
becomes a fatal error:
$ msgfmt -c blueprints.po
blueprints.po: warning: Charset missing in header.
Message conversion to user's charset will not work.
msgfmt: blueprints.po: warning: PO file header missing or invalid
warning: charset conversion will not work
msgfmt: found 1 fatal error
