I checked my system last night and found: 1) everything in the path /opt/kde/share/locale/en_UK is owned by root:root and has permissions 755 2) there is no en_US directory (nor any C directory either) 3) my KDE language settings are first en_UK, then en (US), and then C 4) the file 'charset' in /opt/kde/share/locale/en_UK is owned by root:root and has permissions 644. It only contains 'iso-8859-1' I also noticed that whilst there where a lot of the language sub-directories in /opt/kde/share/locale, they didn't all seem to be there (see above), and only some of them contained a 'charset' file.
