ok, i see the problem now...

> I saw in your screenshot that all is in english so it's the problem.
yes, it is. and it should be, because, for several reasons, i prefer english as
my interface language. However, i really really hate the US/UK date format,
which is why i set my time to de_DE (btw: yes, i live in germany)

i had a quick look at the dolphin source code, where QLocale is used, which
displays the date the way i want it (dd.mm.yyyy). But QLocale does not support
anything like KLocale::FancyShortDate.
As FancyShortDate uses words, it seems to get its locale settings from the
LANGUAGE variable, instead of LC_TIME.

i think the correct way to handle this would be to use LANGUAGE for the words
and LC_TIME for the rest (as, i believe, it was in kde 4) which is, of course,
an issue for the kf5 libraries and not a bug in akregator. I'll file a report
there.
