SUMMARY Country names in the address editor are in English. Country names in the address viewer are in Polish. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Tell Kontact to create a new contact! 2. Tell the new contact to add a new address! 3. Select a country! OBSERVED RESULT The countries are in English. EXPECTED RESULT Let the countries be in Polish! SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20230210 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.102.0 Qt Version: 5.15.8 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The country list has been populated using raw QLocale::countryToString which returns English names. It has then been sorted using QString::localeAwareCompare, i.e. using Polish locale. The result of sorting English names in Polish locale is acceptable but the process seems fishy. The country name displayed in the contact view pane is provided by KCountry. There is no proof that Qt itself should be responsible for providing a localised country name.
No, the country name in the addresssbook editor is provided by Qt: https://invent.kde.org/pim/akonadi-contacts/-/blob/master/src/contact-editor/editor/addresseditor/addresslocationwidget.cpp#L177

We cannot expect Qt to provide a localised country name, that is why we implement the support for localised country names in our framework. As much as I would like upstream to provide a localised country name, I do not think we should expect it to happen. We have already acknowledged that in that we created our own class to provide the required functionality.
