Can you then explain this one :-)

tortho at inspiron:~$ export LANG=nb
tortho at inspiron:~$ /opt/gnucash-1.9/bin/gnucash


This is a development version. It may or may not work.
Report bugs and other problems to gnucash-devel at gnucash.org.
You can also lookup and file bug reports at http://bugzilla.gnome.org
The last stable version was GnuCash 1.8.12
The next stable version will be GnuCash 2.0


(gnucash:5311): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
        Using the fallback 'C' locale.

(gnucash:5311): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library
tortho at inspiron:~$


I have now tried with no, nb, no_NB, no_NO since I saw this command in 
another mail: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 gnucash, And the gnucash translator wiki 
has this text:

Now you can run gnucash with your ned translations:

LANG=XXXX /opt/gnucash-svn/bin/gnucash


I tryed to restart my system with norwegian as default, and everything 
worked. Now back on english again, fails.
