I did this they are generated, but 
env LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 gnucash

Does not start in english 
and 

env LANG=de gnucash 

Gives 14:49:37  WARN <Gtk> Locale not supported by C library.

And gnucash does not start in german neither.

My issue is that the only way to change the language in gnucash is, 

    -  enter the controlcenter change the default language 

    -  logout/login 

    -  start gnucash 

The command line idea with env does not work, with the exception of
english.
