language changing helpfile not possible

[T J Schemkes]

Ubuntu 12.04 is installed with the choice Dutch language and keyboard English-VS with Euro-sing on 5.
The languagepack 'libreoffice-help-nl' is installed (green sign in synaptic).
In the LibreOffice suite is everything Dutch except the Help guide. That is English.
I have changed the options in LibreOffice from Dutch to English, start again, and changed back from English to Dutch and start again.
No result, nice Dutch in menu's and popup-screens, but helpfile remains English.

WORKAROUND: Delete package libreoffice-help-en-us .

T J Schemkes, as a potential workaround, does removing the package libreoffice-help-en-us display the help as desired?

[T J Schemkes (tj-schemkes)]

Yes, Christopher M.

It works. Deleted with synaptic: libreoffice-help-en-us.
Now I have the Dutch help-text in the spreadsheets.
Thanks.
