Yeah, when updating a string in a file, we should typically update (commit)
the updated .pot file. I personally don't do it all the time as i think its
rude to constantly be changing the .pot file on a translator. I tend to push
the updated po/pot files when there a are several changes and bulk them in
one commit.

Yeah, regenerating the whole thing may be worth it. I'm sure there are other
strings that have been updated but not the pot file.

Alternatively, we could replace this string in the po files

msgid "KDE, XFCE, GNOME, and others"

and change XFCE to Xfce and update the fedora-web.pot file.

Doing all that may be too much effort that just updating any and all missing
or updated strings.
