Thanks. Those steps worked just fine.

ls /usr/local/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/gramps.mo
now expands to 7 instances of gramps.mo, including my 'dk' version.

ls src/intl*.so
expands to src/intl21.so
while `python -V` yields
Python 2.1.2

I assume that is OK.

I regret to say that the problem persists: I still get the US-wording
in gramps after setting the LANG variable (as in my previous mail).

Is there a way to make gramps more verbose while I figure this out?

Perhaps my installation of locales is incorrect? Can somebody give me
a pointer to some help about this (using a debian woody installation) ?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,
