    Description

      Hello, I'm trying to add additional language support to an installer built by QtIFW, and I'm running out of ideas on what to try.
      I've got sample (unfinished translation to Czech), and I've tried following:
      a) Adding to config.xml

      <Translations>
        <Translation>qt_cs.qm</Translation>
        <Translation>ifw_cs.qm</Translation>
      </Translations>

      (That doesn't seem to work at all.)

      b) Using extra resource file and passing it to the binarycreator with -r
      Used command:

      /C/Qt/Tools/QtInstallerFramework/4.2/bin/binarycreator.exe -c win64/config/config.xml -p win64/packages -t /C/Qt/Tools/QtInstallerFramework/4.2/bin/installerbase.exe -r win64/config/translations.qrc installer.exe

      Content of translations.qrc:

      <RCC>
      <qresource prefix="/translations">
      <file>qt_cs.qm</file>
      <file>ifw_cs.qm</file>
      <file>qt_en.qm</file>
      <file>ifw_en.qm</file>
      </qresource>
      <qresource prefix="/translations_new">
      <file>qt_cs.qm</file>
      <file>ifw_cs.qm</file>
      <file>qt_en.qm</file>
      <file>ifw_en.qm</file>
      </qresource>
      </RCC>

      In this case, if I view created installer with binary editor, I can see the occurences of translated strings, but the translation won't load.
      Additionaly, when I view output of installer with -d -d

      ./installer.exe -d -d:

      The bundled resources are missing in the output.
      Are there any other requirements for loading translation?
