Hi Leen,
I did some research on my system (SuSE 7.3):
...
File ownership & permissions: "ls -l kdeglobals" gives: -rw------- 1 leen users 6493 May 8 17:00 kdeglobals
and "ls -l .." gives: drwx------ 4 leen users 2776 May 8 17:00 config
So both the config directory as well as kdeglobals are readable and writable. Please check if that is the case in your home directory. Also have a look in kdeglobals, at the "Locale" section, and check for the "Language" and "Country" keys. They should have the value "de".
the owner and group belonged to root. I have no idea how this had changed, because I am not aware that I changed this. Maybe it has something to do with the YaST-problem I wrote about.
Thank you very much, it really was useful.
Michael
After resetting the ownership back to these of my user, it worked again.
;-)) Considering the YasT2 problem: try to install the package you had a problem with, again. Watch for the error message, and copy or write it down. After closing YaST2, look in /var/log/y2log* (on my SuSE 7.3 system) for suspicious messages (near the end of the files). Maybe you can find something. Leen
