Description Emílio Simões 2015-05-19 15:14:25 UTC 
System settings regional settings has a duplicated pt-BR language option and has no option to select pt-PT.
In the available languages it appears "português do Brasil" twice, it should be "português do Brasil" and "português de Portugal"

Also, any of the options always applies pt-BR as the UI language.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to System Settings -> Regional Settings -> Language
2. Chose any of the options
3. Press 'Apply'
4. Restart session, language is always pt-BR for any of the options

Actual Results:  
There are two pt-BR options
Both of them apply the pt-BR language for the UI messages

Expected Results:  
It should be an option for pt-PT
The pt_PT option should apply the pt-PT translations for the UI messages

Confirmed with Plasma 5.3 / Kubuntu 15.04 fresh install in a VM

I found a similar problem with catalan and catalan from Valencia. The options string is «catalan» in both cases but each one point to the correct language (ca vs. ca@valencia) and you can see different translations. 

Are you shure that both options gives the same result for portuguese? If this is the case this bug is a duplicated of bug #345761
Comment 3 Emílio Simões 2015-08-18 17:43:55 UTC 
I can't find any visible change in any of the core KDE applications, all the messages remain the same.
As far as I can perceive both options apply the same translation.

Pushed by aacid into branch 'Plasma/5.4'.

Fix issues in translation control module

Fixes two problems:
 * Variants not being shown up, i.e. ca ca@valencia showing up both as "català"
 * pt showing up as "português do Brasil"

For the first one i've went the easy route of adding the languageCode if there's an @ in it
For pt i had to hardcode it since i found no other way to make Qt understand that for "pt" we mean portuguese from portugal

Comment 5 Emílio Simões 2015-11-02 09:50:04 UTC 
I'm reopening this issue because it's not fixed.

In the available languages indeed both languages appear (pt-PT and pt-BR) but when we move the European Portuguese to the preferred languages panel it still appear as Brazilian Portuguese.

I'm attaching 2 new screenshots that reproduce the issue:

This is fixed in the rewritten Language KCM in 5.13.
