Yes. It is just that Qt is not provided with all possible translations. 
When the Gambas programs starts and loads the Qt library, it tells it 
which is the system language, then I try to find the corresponding Qt 
translation, I don't find it, and I print that message.

The Qt translation is mainly used for standard Qt dialogs, or the popup 
menu of a TextBox...
