Hi Sergio,

Indeed, it's this bug, but as you say, this should be a non-issue:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/+bug/1233071

In summary, setting i18n.bindtextdomain should allow changing the default
location to load translations from. That bug is for getting the SDK to
automatically do that for you. In the meantime, and until that is fixed,
i18n.bindtextdomain will need to be set up manually in the QML code for all
clickified apps.

Cheers,
David.
