Kubuntu 11.10 beta: systemsettings crashes when changing kde system language

Asked by Georg H.

I have Kubuntu 11.10 beta installed on my laptop.

If I try to change the system language the systemsetting application crashes every time.

me@zwerg:/dev$ systemsettings(6653): No language dictionaries for the language : "de"

systemsettings(6653)/python (plugin): Error while running factory function for Python plugin: "language-selector/language-selector.py"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 18, in kpythonpluginfactory_bridge

    li = LanguageInformation(self, code, lang)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/LanguageSelector/LangCache.py", line 41, in __init__
    if 'gnome-' not in sys.argv[0]:
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'argv'
systemsettings(6653)/python (plugin): Failed to import module
systemsettings(6653)/kcontrol KCModuleLoader::loadModule: This module has no valid entry symbol at all. The reason could be that it's still using K_EXPORT_COMPONENT_FACTORY with a custom X-KDE-FactoryName which is not supported anymore
X Error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) 3
  Major opcode: 20 (X_GetProperty)
  Resource id: 0x40000db

How can I fix this? Is this a Bug?

Thanks!
