/etc/sysconfig/language Now I found a solution for the console and for Gnome. KDE is still not working in English for me.
In /etc/sysconfig/language I changed RC_LANG="de_DE.utf8" to RC_LANG="en_US.utf8". "localectl" (from systemd) and Yast do not touch this setting. The change makes the console (e.g. text console or ssh remote login) working in English. I removed all LANG/LC-settings from $HOME/.profile. /etc/sysconfig/language: INPUT_METHOD="" RC_LANG="en_US.utf8" RC_LC_ALL="" RC_LC_MESSAGES="" RC_LC_CTYPE="" RC_LC_COLLATE="" RC_LC_TIME="" RC_LC_NUMERIC="" RC_LC_MONETARY="" RC_LC_PAPER="" ROOT_USES_LANG="ctype" AUTO_DETECT_UTF8="no" INSTALLED_LANGUAGES="de_DE,en_US" /etc/locale.conf: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 /etc/profile, /etc/profile.locale: no LANG/LC-variables /etc/profile.d/lang.csh /etc/profile.d/lang.sh: the unmodified aaa_base files $HOME/.dmrc: [Desktop] Session=xsession $HOME/.i18n: does not exist $HOME/.profile: no LANG/LC-variables Also Gnome sessions are now in English. KDE Plasma desktop is still in German. Only SDDM itself is in English. I both checked a normal KDE Plasma session started with SDDM and a XRDP session from Windows. Also consoles in KDE desktop are still in German. Some KDE component sets two environment variable incorrectly. May be a bug? myuser@mybox:~> env | grep LANG LANGUAGE=de:en_US LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 myuser@mybox:~> locale LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_TIME="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_NAME="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_ALL= So probably I will use Gnome for the online session.
