Did the pdf show properly in its Tab? Or in Preview if using object tags or iframe's to load it in the xhtml?

Good to know that renaming the uk_UA ts file to just uk worked the way you wanted.

Are you experiencing any of the missing button text in popup dialogs, especially in plugins? The ShowSemantics plugin is a good test case for this issue.

Do you perceive it to be faster than running x86-64 based Sigil under Rosetta 2 on the same machine?

My only other concern is general stability as building Qt 5.15 on Ventura on an M2 mac required a large number of patches to get it to build on arm64. It was a real Frankenstein build process. So if you do run into issues while testing it, please let me know.
