Bug Description

My system: Kubuntu Hardy 8.04 with KDE3 3.5.9 and KDE4 4.0.3

Problem: KDE4 systemsettings -> Country/Region and language -> There is language: german, and Country/Region: default
If I click change for Country, the "Country selector - System settings" window pops up and offers me on the left side only "default", nothing else. On the right side there is no item. I can't choose Germany or another country, because there is none to select.

conclusion: Numbers, money, date and so on are from US, not from Germany. No way to change that.

remark 1: same behavior for other users on this computer under KDE4
remark 2: There is no problem to choose Germany or other country as country/region under KDE3 system settings.
remark 3: The German language packs for KDE4 are installed

Maybe that's help for bug finding: If I call systemsettings from terminal some of following lines are written:

systemsettings(21872) XKlavierAdaptor::loadXkbConfig: Setting LC_ALL for libxklavier: "de_C.UTF-8"
systemsettings(21872) XKlavierAdaptor::loadXkbConfig: Setting locale "de_C.UTF-8" failed - will use 'C' locale"

and

systemsettings(21872) MainWindow::selectionChanged: adding
systemsettings(21872) KLocaleConfigTime::slotLocaleChanged: calSys: 0 : "gregorian"

Feel free to contact me, if you need additional infos,

Thanks.

I'm having the problem too. I updated an Ubuntu 8.04 installing the package kubuntu-kde4-desktop. On another PC I installed from the downloaded CD image and it is working fine.

I found in Google an irc conversation from Riddel and apachelogger talking about if the issue is only in the german language, and I don't think so.

My system:

Kubuntu 8.04 upgraded from Kubuntu 7.10 (all in Spanish version).
I have installed KDE 3.5.9 and KDE4. Recently, I updated to 4.1 beta1 (kubuntu packages).
