WARNING On Windows, with the binary based on the conda packages, Python 3.11, only the English version of CloudCompare is available,
the translations are not available: it seems that this is due to a bug in the Qt 5.15.4 version of the conda package.
We are waiting for the correction of this bug in the packaging.
