I had this issue while trying to execute python manage.py makemessages -l es, in a Django installation. So, after a lot of research, I installed Gettext 0.21 (64 bit, static) from https://mlocati.github.io/articles/gettext-iconv-windows.html.

Then, I took the binary from C:\Program Files\gettext-iconv\bin\xgettext.exe and replaced the one I had on C:\tools\miniconda3\envs\my_venv\Library\bin\xgettext.exe and the first command worked. You may find this last location with the command where xgettext.exe.

It seems that conda-forge grabs a shared version (not static) of Gettext 0.19.8.1 that doesn't work very well.
