Hi James, 

not much :-), but thanks anyway.  The optimal situation would be as
follows: 

1) During installation, I would have an option that lets me choose which
languages to install - keyword "languageS", not "language".  Today when
I pick e.g. Greek, I get the proper language version of all packages,
except those for which no Greek version exists.  AT install time I
would then pick e.g. German+English+French and have all the appropriate
packages installed.

2) Each user would have the option of choosing a language through the
KDE Personal Preferences.

AFAICS, #1 is not an option today unless I've completely overlooked it.
#2 is an option, but I'm not sure how well it works even when I've
installed additional languages.
