Attached is a patch against the master branch in cwidget-upstream which
takes care of that, I have not looked what it would take to apply it to
the Debian packaging.
Having to change three files for an SONAME bump is not great. Another
option would be to set the domain back to 'cwidget' and ship the
translations in their own package, say libcwidget-l10n. Then both
libcwidget4 and a later libcwidget5 package could declare a relationship
to libcwidget-l10n, probably Recommends.
Cheers,
Sven

Subject: [PATCH] Change gettext domainname to 'libcwidget4'
This accommodates the domain to the changed SONAME.
