I guess you're running an old ki18n

Here you have it.

kf.i18n: KLocalizedString: Using an empty domain, fix the code. msgid: "Idle" msgid_plural: "" msgctxt: ""
kf.i18n: KLocalizedString: Using an empty domain, fix the code. msgid: "In Progress" msgid_plural: "" msgctxt: ""
kf.i18n: KLocalizedString: Using an empty domain, fix the code. msgid: "Error" msgid_plural: "" msgctxt: ""
kf.i18n: KLocalizedString: Using an empty domain, fix the code. msgid: "Aborted" msgid_plural: "" msgctxt: ""
kf.i18n: KLocalizedString: Using an empty domain, fix the code. msgid: "Complete" msgid_plural: "" msgctxt: ""

Comes from kstars/kstars/ekos/capture/sequencejob.cpp:26

m_BaseView = new QQuickView();
m_BaseView->setSource(QUrl("qrc:/qml/mount/mountbox.qml"));
m_Ctxt = m_BaseView->rootContext();
m_Ctxt->setContextObject(new KLocalizedContext(m_BaseView));

The order is wrong, you are first setting the qml file and then setting the thing that provides xi18n
