Thank you, that really solved my problem. I had to delete the directory /usr/share/applnk/Games/ maually an to repeat the procedure with the package kdelibs-data. No my KDE is behaving normal again accept for the language. Althogh "german" is selectet in ControlCenter all applications are displayed with english menu entries...

Thats where the errormesage appeares (not at boottime, sorry)

here ist die output of the command:
  • dpkg --configure -a
    Setting up locales (2.3.2.ds1-12) ...
    Generating locales...
    af_ZA.ISO-8859-1... done
    ...
    ro_RO.ISO-8859-2...LC_ADDRESS: `country_ab3' value does not match `country_num' value
    dpkg: error processing locales (--configure):
    subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
    Errors were encountered while processing:
    locales


could this be related to the language problem of my KDE?

thanks so far!
TT
