Half of the system language changes to english
Hi, I installed my arch some time ago in spanish, recently, probably after a system upgrade, some things in my system are in english:
My DDE is KDE Plasma, preferences, descriptions of apps, login screen are in spanish, everything else in english.
Date format, currency, numer format... all these things are in spanish form.
Pacman, for example is in english.
This is the output of locale command:
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
LANG=an_ES.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="an_ES.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="an_ES.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="an_ES.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="an_ES.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="an_ES.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="an_ES.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="an_ES.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="an_ES.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="an_ES.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="an_ES.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="an_ES.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="an_ES.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
I don't know what an_ES.UTF-8 is, the language code should be es_ES.UTF-8
This is my /etc/locale.conf:
LANG=es_ES.UTF-8
When doing locale-gen, the output is:
Generating locales...
es_ES.UTF-8... done
Generation complete.

Re: Half of the system language changes to english
an_ES is Aragonese - SPAIN, I assume you simply selected the wrong kind of spanish in KDEs locale dialog?

Yes, it was aragonese, but, I didn't selected this (in fact I had this setup for several months), i had to edit it in ./.config/plasma-localerc, so this thread is solved, but if It occurs to more people, there may be a bug there. Thanks!

Re: Half of the system language changes to english
Does the KDE locale GUI allow you to chose the spanish variant?
Please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.
