IMHO the locale, translation would be a blocker still. Because it will cause programs to fail. It's not just a locale/translation warning. I'm currently brushing up my latest qtwebengine build. Will resubmit this patch. I will also see if I can inherit qtsvg again to put this back on par with other module packages. From there I'll put a simple test example together demonstrating the locale and translation problem. Mike
