Hello Gustavo,
Consider setting the "gettext.bindtextdomain()" (in src/main.py, I
think) as mentioned in
https://docs.python.org/pt-br/3/library/gettext.html
If the domain name is not set, the software will look for
"messages.mo" (the translation file in machine language) instead of
the proper e.g. "font-downloader.mo".
You can verify if that's the case by searching for "messages.mo":
$ strace -o file.log (replace if the proper executable name/path)
$ grep messages.mo file.log
Best regards,
Rafael Fontenelle
