Description

Defining below in .pro works fine with XCode 12

QMAKE_INFO_PLIST = $$PWD/Info.plist

TRANSLATE_ja.files = $$PWD/ja.lproj/InfoPlist.strings
TRANSLATE_ja.path = ja.lproj
TRANSLATE_en.files = $$PWD/en.lproj/InfoPlist.strings
TRANSLATE_en.path = en.lproj
QMAKE_BUNDLE_DATA += TRANSLATE_ja TRANSLATE_en

plist is translated and the structure in .app is

en.lproj/InfoPlist.strings
ja.lproj/InfoPlist.strings

However, this does not work with XCode 13.
plist is not translated and the result in .app is

en.lproj/en.lproj/InfoPlist.strings
ja.lproj/ja.lproj/InfoPlist.strings

It works fine with XCode 13 if TRANSLATE_xx.path is not set, that is in .pro

TRANSLATE_ja.files = $$PWD/ja.lproj/InfoPlist.strings
TRANSLATE_en.files = $$PWD/en.lproj/InfoPlist.strings
QMAKE_BUNDLE_DATA += TRANSLATE_ja TRANSLATE_en
