Summary

  • refresh the Swedish catalog against the complete VirtualBox GUI translation source set
  • add and translate 254 newly discovered GUI messages
  • mark 124 messages that are no longer present in the GUI source set as vanished
  • create .lproj language directories inside the nested VirtualBoxVM.app bundle on macOS

The official 7.2.14 Apple Silicon package contains the Swedish QM catalogs, but its nested VirtualBoxVM.app/Contents/Resources directory contains no language-specific .lproj directories. VirtualBox already creates these directories for the outer Manager app because macOS requires them to localize the application menu. This change applies the same handling to the VM app during both frontend installation and final macOS package assembly.

The VirtualBox catalog contains 3,588 active source strings. Together with the 1,767 active Qt catalog entries, Swedish covers 5,355 active strings.

Validation

  • inspected the official VirtualBox 7.2.14 macOS/Arm64 package and confirmed the nested VM bundle lacks all .lproj directories
  • full project makeallnls target completed successfully
  • makeallnls result for Swedish: 3,588 source texts, 0 new, 3,588 already existing
  • lrelease generated 3,588 finished translations and 0 unfinished translations
  • all source placeholders match their translations
  • git diff --check passed

A complete signed macOS package build was not available on the Linux validation host.
