I’m building Wireshark on Windows, but I’ve upgraded Qt to 5.12.7.  Everything is fine except when uninstalling Wireshark.  It seems that Wireshark now installs the translations in C:\Program Files\Wireshark\styles\translations, but this directory isn’t removed during the un-installation process.
 
I think this is likely due to Qt 5.12.7 vs. Qt 5.12.6 that the buildbot is using, but I can’t be completely sure since my environment differs in other ways too.  Well, for what it’s worth, in case anyone else encounters this, I modified packaging\nsis\uninstall.nsi as follows, which fixes this [for me]:
 
Delete "$INSTDIR\styles\*.*"
Delete "$INSTDIR\styles\translations\*.*"
 
RMDir "$INSTDIR\share"
RMDir "$INSTDIR\styles\translations"
