Yes, but I barely made the cut, and I don't think it applies here:-)

No problem. You might wish to see if you can find out _how_ that got
set--perhaps in your display manager?. Also, this may be some sort of
bug somewhere: I would imagine that the LANGUAGE variable is supposed to
specify languages in order of preference--that would mean that GnuCash
should have grabbed the en_US versions before en_GB before plain en.
Perhaps the US translations are in en instead of en_US?
Personally, I set LANG to en_GB because I like it, and LC_MONETARY to
en_US because that's where I live. Now I just need to figure out which
variables to set to get the GNOME calendar applet to display the date &
time as God intended (e.g. 'Thu., 30 Dec. '04, 17.13')...
Glad you were able to get this resolved. Regards &c.
