Dolphin in german environment displays english menu items

Support KDE Plasma
1

Hello,

this is a problem, that drives me nuts.

I have a german environment but Dolphin dislays a menu with mixed germand and english menu items. See screenshot → ibb[.]co/tMCFG20

I believe this exists since I have installed from the current iso of 20.2.1, because I have an older installation on bare metal, where this problem does not occur.

  • My local settings are german
  • I have re-installed dolphin but with no avail.
  • My dolphin lanugage setting is german

Screenshot of Dolphin language setting. → ibb[.]co/kXJPPBV

output of locale -a:

C
de_DE.utf8
POSIX

less /etc/locale.conf
LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_MONETARY=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_NAME=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_PAPER=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_TIME=de_DE.UTF-8

output of less /etc/locale.gen:
de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8

I have also set the locale manually in restarted Dolphin:
localectl set-locale LANG=de_DE.UTF-8

I have reinstalled qt-5 translations
sudo pacman -S qt5-translations

Any ideas?

Could be some new stuff in Dolphin that has not been translated yet? Or the string has changed slightly, so the translation no longer matches the string.

Thanks for your reply, but I don’t think so, because very basic items are not translated in my environment.
E.g. File, Edit, View, Tools … is not translated.
But then “Create new…”, "Create new golder, "Properties, “Add to Locations” actually is being translated. It’s a weird mixture.
