            Bug ID: 235221
           Summary: x11/kde5 Issues with locale
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: kde at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: bsd at abinet.ru

I was not sure to start PR as I thought the problem is unique for my setup, but
recently I found similar problem on FreeBSD forum.

The problem is then KDE translation changed, any KDE update breaks text
rendering on various KDE components.

For example, here is simple test.
1.Go to KDE settings -> Locale parameters and set it to russian (ru_RU).
2. Logout-Login. Start terminal and check locale output.
Strange thing it won't be UTF-8 russian.
3. Repeat step 1 and step 2.
It will be UTF-8 russian.
4. Log out.
5. Delete ~/.cache and log in.
6. Now font rendering is broken. For example, KDE settings misses all
descriptions.
6.1. If you have avatar, it disappears from locking screen (but not from sddm
screen).
7. Workaround: log off, delete ~/.cache , delete
~/.config/plasma-locale-settings.sh and ~/.config/plasma-localerc, set desired
locale.
7.1. Not sure how to bring avatar back though.

I have this issue after every (even minor) KDE update on all computers I run
FreeBSD/KDE. Hope, this one is not unique.
