           Summary: konsole outputs in wrong language when two languages are
                    installed
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Mandriva RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: vatbier at yahoo.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.1.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs

Mandriva Linux 2009 
KDE 4.1.2

At installation of Mandriva 2009 I selected the languages English (American)
and Dutch (as I live in Belgium). 
KDE systemsettings:Regional & Language: 
 Country: Belgium 
 Languages: US English, Dutch

In konsole some commands use Dutch output, like: 
konsole: urpmf /bin/mail : 
geen xml-info beschikbaar voor medium "Mandriva Linux - 2009.0 (Powerpack) -
Installer"
(urpmf is a Mandriva program)

I want it to use English output, like it does when in root environment:
konsole: su -; urpmf /bin/mail:
no xml-info available for medium "Mandriva Linux - 2009.0 (Powerpack) -
Installer"

I figured out that the fault lies with konsole/kde: 
konsole: echo $LANGUAGE 
nl 

KDE systemsettings:Regional & Language:Languages: US English, Dutch 
If I remove Dutch and open a new konsole then 
echo $LANGUAGE 
en_US 

If I put Dutch above US English, the environment variable LANGUAGE remains
"nl". 
So I can remove Dutch from the KDE languages (the spelling dictionaries for
Dutch luckily do not get removed). 
Or I can edit the current profile of Konsole: Environment:Edit: add
"LANGUAGE=en_US". 
And I now have my wanted konsole outputs in English.

When the language setting of KDE is US English (above Dutch), then konsole
should set the LANGUAGE environment variable to "en_US" and not to "nl".
