Hello everyone,
I tried to change the change the language in KDE’s settings in the “region and language” section. I did this because I wanted the Java compiler to show its messages in English, and I thought everytime I needed it I could temporarily set the language to English and then back to Austrian German, which I use otherwise.
When I tried to change the settings I got a warning that my system can’t auto-generate locales, so I changed it back (or I thought so) and didn’t think about it anymore.
Since the next reboot after the fiddling the GUI is partly in English, partly in German.
I tried to change locale settings in the terminal and generate new locals, but that didn’t help.
The output of locale is as follows:
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
