QMessageBox.question returns an integer:

0 if you click the first button
1 for the second (if there is one)
2 for the third (if there is one)

It does *not* return what you pass in the button0/button1/button2 arguments.

For example, if you call it like you wrote, it will return 0 in Yes, 1 in No.

If you call it like this:

>                     res = QMessageBox.question(mainVBox
>                                                , _('Confirmation')
>                                                , _('Are you sure you
> want to delete ') + num + _(' files?')
>                                                , QMessageBox.No,
> QMessageBox.Yes)

It will return 1 in Yes, 0 in No.

This behaviour is exactly like the C++ version.
