    Description

      Bug report results from a forum post: https://forum.qt.io/topic/130308/manage-translations-with-cmake

      When using qt5_create_translation(), calling make clean (or e.g. execution 'Rebuild all' in QtCreator) will remove the ts files in the source directory.

      The reason for this is that the custom command to execute lupdate specifies the ts file as OUTPUT (which is correct) and therefore cmake sets the 'GENERATED' property which means the file gets deleted on make clean. Sadly this property can not be unset and I did not find a workaround.
