+# Note that we use -nocompress in lrelease to avoid stripping comments and
+# other information from .qm files. If we don't do that, we get .qm files two
+# times smaller, but QTranslator::findMessage() will start searching for
+# translations in all existing contexts in case if it cannot find it in the
+# original context (which is of course not acceptable, no matter if it's a
+# special Qt "feature" or just a bug).
