I can see that LANG and LANGUAGE have been written to /etc/default/locale and /etc/environment also for KDE users. I'm suggesting that also LC_MESSAGES is written to those files, and so far I have assumed that that change would at least not be a problem for KDE. Are you able to tell whether my assumption is correct? > Thanks for taking over the language-selector development, btw. ;) Well, that's not exactly what I'm doing. Don't consider myself qualified for such a commitment. So far my goal has been to help solve the issues in this bug report. I'd be happy to keep contributing as a member of some formal or informal l-s team, though. Your participation in such a team on a volunteer, less demanding basis would be much appreciated.
