Can you check in KOrganizer to see if this is also a problem there?  Look in Settings/Configure KOrganizer/Time and Date/Regional/Holidays and see if you have no choices there either.  Plasma uses the holiday files installed with the kdepimlibs module, if the regions are missing from KOrganizer too then it's probably a packaging error.  If the regions are in KOrg, then plasma has a bug.

It is now working in both (KOrganizer & kalarm)! thanks.

Second report received, so does appear to be a general problem.
Comment 9 Rex Dieter 2010-01-11 18:48:26 UTC
From some irc discussion, this seems related to plasma-dataengine-calendar being available at runtime or not.

Possible reason(s) it not being available are:
1. (upstream) it needlessly links against libakonadi (and friends)
2. (downstream) as a result, some distros (including fedora) package it separately and/or leave it optional (likely gentoo here in the dup'd report).

pinotree is working on (1) in kde svn.
