I will still release this as a beta, but it is very strange.
The mimetreeparser.po is fully translated by eva. The .mo file installed contains the strings, I checked this. And I can see that the mimetreeparser.mo is found and read in. But the dialog stays untranslated except I think where the messages come from other libraries.
I have not checked on linux yet.

I'm wondering whether this could be caused by a wrong translation domain. We have mimetreeparser.{pot,po,mo}, but in src/CMakeLists.txt we have
add_definitions(-DTRANSLATION_DOMAIN=\"libmimetreeparser5\")
In libkleo the translation domain and the pot/po/mo file name are identical.
This may be a red herring. I don't really know how the translation business works internally.
Other possible reason: https://api.kde.org/frameworks/ki18n/html/prg_guide.html#before_qapp
Are the action texts initialized statically?
Or is it an order problem in src/CMakeLists.txt?
add_subdirectory(core)
add_definitions(-DTRANSLATION_DOMAIN=\"libmimetreeparser5\")
if (Qt${KF_MAJOR_VERSION}Quick_FOUND)
add_subdirectory(quick)
endif()
if (Qt${KF_MAJOR_VERSION}Widgets_FOUND)
add_subdirectory(widgets)
endif()Does this mean that the TRANSLATION_DOMAIN define is used when building the code in the quick and widgets subfolders but not when building the core subfolder?
