I checked the website, you proposed, and I have already a newer version of KDE thanks Guix and it looks quite differently. and I deleted the additional languages in system settings/region and language

Hi Gottfried,

I think what you want is to be able to use those languages keyboard characters/symbols. 
This is best done with a keyboard language/layout: a quick search for "keyboard 
layout kde plasma" turned up this blog post that may show you the way:

Hello,

for clarification:
I have got German locale only in my config.scm.

In KDE I additionally installed in  the /system settings/Region and Language
and in the keyboard settings:
en_GB
Greek
Hebrew

That´s why I got probably that message:
(listed in the earlier message)

I do not need several languages im my config.scm.

Did I make a mistake to add several languages in my
/system settings/Region and Language?

Would it be enough to add them to the keyboard settings?

thanks

Gottfried

Hello,

there are some problems with locale.

I installed German, there is also British English and he means probably
Hebrew, which seems not be installed properly.

How can I additionally set up hebrew?
(I wanted that only in case for needing some letters for copying...)

How can I delete hebrew?
