Bug Description
Binary package hint: kdelibs
after language updates of 2008.02.12, if language is set to en_CA, launching kde apps results in an error like this:
ejortegau@
kdecore (KLocale): WARNING: Definition of PluralForm is none of NoPlural/
kdeinit: Communication error with launcher. Exiting!
kdecore (KLocale): WARNING: Definition of PluralForm is none of NoPlural/
Not only happens with konqueror, but also kopete, kwin, and probably a lot others. Fixed by using qt-language-

This actually prevents kde/xwindows from starting at all, it gets to 'Initializing services', then quits and goes back to the login screen.
Removing language- pack-kde- en and language- pack-kde- en-base fixes this as well.
It seems rather stupid that a language error would cause a complete failure of kde.
