I switched to batch
and for me gnucash starts in *english*

I use tcsh

So it should be 

 env LANG=es_ES LANGUAGE=de_DE gnucash --nofile

But again this does not wrk

That might be the case but please note the message I obtain:

nc.bin-Message: main: binreloc relocation support was disabled at configure time.

* 16:37:07  WARN <Gtk> Locale not supported by C library.


So it seems to be that gnucash was compiled such that Locale is not
supported in the C lib and that is may be why the local switch does not
work?
