There is a much wider issue caused by the generated
"~/.kde/env/setlocale.sh" script; it can somehow get 'stuck' on an
incorrect encoding which can't be subsequently fixed via the GUI.
I have a system with:
cat /etc/default/locale
LANG="en_GB.UTF-8"
Prior to generation of "setlocale.sh" Konsole
sudo grep -rn 'setlocale\.sh' /usr/lib/kde4/*
Binary file /usr/lib/kde4/kcm_locale.so matches
dpkg-query -S /usr/lib/kde4/kcm_locale.so
kde-runtime: /usr/lib/kde4/kcm_locale.so
apt-get source kde-runtime
cd kde-runtime-*
grep -rn 'setlocale\.sh' *
