[Qgis-user] Couldn't load plugin XY due to an error when calling its classFactory() method

[Bo Victor Thomsen]

I can't honestly answer that question. It's almost automatic (Like a 
Pavlov's dog) for me nowadays to manually set the locale for QGIS on 
every computer I'm using. So I normally don't experience the problem any 
more.

And I don't use the plugin builder anymore to generate the skeleton of a 
new plugin.

Med venlig hilsen / Best regards
