Is there any "magic incantation" at all? I would think that, for instance, all lang'ified packages would need to be replaced and /etc/sysconfig/i18n be updated. On one system I had to add German and I used rpm -Uvh package.rpm --define '_install_langs de,en' --replacepkgs on the most fundamental packages and also post-installed the KDE-i18n packages. Is there any better way? --
