Yes, you are right, but it is the design it has.
I suspect it is more an oversight (KDE not passing on it's locale environment to it's children) more than a specific design requirement.
Easy to test.
zap your ~/.bashrc and ~/.bash_profile and ~/.bash_login and make sure there's nothing in /etc setting LANG
then start a shell from KDE. Look in that environment.
Change the setting in KDE and repeat.
My original post was describing my findings as a result of just that test. Setting a language in KDE does propagate to non-KDE applications started by KDE. In Konsole, type 'locale' and you will see that the required and standard Linux settings have simply not been done in the shell running in KDE. I use Konsole as a simple example because it is so obvious. Also, as I think the shell that Konsole runs is pretty much all Konsole is about, having it not tell that shell the locale info seems odd. I will file a bug report at KDE. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.
