Can you paste the output of: 1. `cat ~/.config/plasma-localerc` 2. `locale`

Thanks. Can you also attach a screenshots of the "Formats" page?

Thanks again. What is the output of `echo $LANGUAGE`? in a terminal window? Something somewhere has en_US set inappropriately; we need to find out where it is!
Created attachment 146456 [details] Here 's what outputs
echo $LANG The following result: ✔ ru_RU.UTF-8
I am confused, then. I don't see where en_US is coming from. It looks to me like your system is properly set up to be 100% in Russian. Han, any ideas here?
Then why is the language of all menus in the system half international? It looks fun, but it is). I'm wondering why I can't change the system language to another one. I can't change it completely to English, and also back. Before this update, there was no such problem
I have no idea; it's a bug whose origin hasn't been discovered yet. I'm CCing some more people who might be able to help.
The only translated strings are coming from .desktop files, while the missing Plasma translations would be in gettext catalogs such as /usr/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/plasma*.mo. Do those exist? This also explains the error message in the language KCM, which is shown if Plasma can't find any translations of systemsettings.
Yes they are at this location
What should I do?
Comment on attachment 146451 [details] writes the following seems to me you didn't set the language to Russian. The default language for translation is America English
In the formats tab, I tried to change languages. To English, then back to Russian. Errors remained
(In reply to JOnN from comment #17) > In the formats tab, I tried to change languages. To English, then back to > Russian. Errors remained try set language to Russian in *Translation*, then re-login to see if the issue still exists
In the language tab, only English is available. The button for adding languages is not active, this can be seen in the screenshot. Therefore, I cannot change the choice here
I guess somehow Plasma can't find translation files then. You can edit ~/.config/plasma-localerc to the following: [Formats] LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8 [Translations] LANGUAGE=ru_RU and restart plasma to see if the UI is properly translated
I did as recommended, but for some reason writes that I could not find the language, while also half of the localizations are there. This is very strange
Created attachment 146494 [details] very strange
yeah, missing plasma translation file. No idea how to fix that though

I notice you are using Manjaro. To my knowledge, Manjaro is not shipping Plasma 5.24 yet, as they typically hold back packages by a few weeks. And it seems like you're using 5.24.80, which would correspond to current git master, not Plasma 5.24. Have you added a special repo to get a different version of Plasma packages compared to what's normally shipped by Manjaro? If so, then I am quite certain that this is a Manjaro packaging issue, not a KDE issue.

OK, then I strongly suspect it's what I wrote earlier. Can you follow up with the Manjaro folks about this?
Unfortunately, I am not a member of any manjaro forum, there were no problems before. In addition, the error that occurred, I left it here, I thought that was enough
> there were no problems before. Right, because you were using a supported configuration before. Then when you changed to use a beta software repo, the problem appeared--most likely because that repo does not include translations in it. You should report this to the Manjaro people.
KDE Plasma: 5.24.3 KDE Frameworks: 5.91.0 Qt: 5.15.3 KERNEL: 5.16.14-1-MANJARO (64 BIT) Reading the forums, I realized that the error occurs during global updates and the standard ways of solving the problem do not help most. After I left the bug report here, there were 2 system updates, but simply installing other default languages through the GUI did not solve the problem of multilingualism of the system!! I solved the problem in the following way: LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 > /etc/environment en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 > /etc/locale.gen LANG=en_US.UTF-8 > /etc/locale.conf sudo locale-gen en_US.UTF-8
