Launching the Settings of qualculate i see a lot of 
"Settings(I18N_EXCESS_ARGUMENTS_SUPPLIED)" caused by broken i18n calls like
"i18nc("Evaluation", "Evaluation Settings", m_applet->name())"

The applet does not respect the locale settings for decimal separators (',' = 
comma in a german locale) in the input line.

Same problem as with kdeedu/step and libqalculate, see
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=181598

Does the applet support translated unit names in conversion?
Afaik libcalculate does not :-(
