I've created a port for just the translations from the release version (unpacking only the toplevel CMake file, the cmake directory and the po directory, then patching the CMake file to leave only the initial setup and frameworks dependencies plus the final 2 lines).

Hi René,

1. You have to restart KDevelop after switching language.
2. Did KDevelop translations work for you on Mac OS X before? I only
use KDevelop on Linux.
3. I find strace helpful to see where an app tries to load
translations from. You may want to use a Mac OS X equivalent for
strace.
