--- Comment #9 from Dennis Schridde <devuran...@gmx.net> ---
I have the exact same issue.

I wouldn't mind having my datestrings in German, but what really bothers me is
that I select the "language" to be English and the "formats" to be German, but
I end up getting German output on the console.

The reasons for this unexpected behaviour is that `.config/plasma-localerc`
sets LANG when I choose a format:
```
[Formats]
LANG=de_DE.UTF-8

[Translations]
LANGUAGE=en_GB:en_US:de
```

This results in the following `.config/plasma-locale-settings.sh` being
generated:
```
# Generated script, do not edit
# Exports language-format specific env vars from startkde.
# This script has been generated from kcmshell5 formats.
# It will automatically be overwritten from there.
export LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
export LANGUAGE=en_GB:en_US:de
```

I would expect System Settings > Regional Settings > Translations to set
LC_MESSAGES, LANG and LANGUAGE, while ... > Formats should set all other LC_*.
That should be correct according to the specs - any misbehaving application
would mean a bug in that application that KDE developers should not worry
about.
