PyQt 6 is missing qt_{lang}.qm

[JakobDev]

PyQt 6 has in it's package the directory Qt6/translations. In this Directory there are the translations. The main ones are qt_{lang}.qm and qtbase_{lang}.qm. This files should be shipped with every PyQt6 Applications. There are other files for specific modules e.g. qtlocation_{lang}.qm, but they don't matter here.

Now let's pack test.py with pyinstaller test.py:

from PyQt6.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget
import sys


def main() -> None:
    app = QApplication(sys.argv)

    w = QWidget()
    w.show()

    sys.exit(app.exec())


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

If you take a look at dist/test/PyQt6/Qt6/translations, you will only find the qtbase_{lang}.qm, but not the qt_{lang}.qm files.
