Running LANGUAGE=de kcmshell5 --list in my catalan based system gives me almost everything in catalan.
That is because most of the strings come from kservice and my sycoca is in catalan. KSycoca does not check the language is the one we want when opening the database so it does not recreate the database and i get the text in the wrong language. I wrote https://paste.kde.org/pynh1ljco that checks the language of the sycoca matches the one we're loading. But it is failing because the main ksycoca path is asking kded via dbus to recreate the sycoca and since kded doesn't know anything about the new language it creates the sycoca in catalan again. Possible ways forward i see: 1) When recreating the sycoca fall back to calling kbuildsycoca ourselves (there's code for that already) when the version matches but not the language 2) Add a parameter to the kded recreate dbus call that adds the language we want to recreate the sycoca 3) Declare using LANGUAGE= unsupported My "i don't know much about this thing" opinion says go for 1) Actually does anyone know why we're calling kded to call kbuildsycoca if we could (and have code to) call kbuildsycoca directly. Comments? Better suggestions?
