Thank you,

Done, but unfortunately after sudo locale-gen and a restart nothing's changed.

$ pluma

** (pluma:865): WARNING **: Could not load theme icon gtk-home: Icon 'gtk-home' not present in theme

^C

$ grep -v "#" /etc/locale.gen
de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8  
en_GB.UTF-8 UTF-8  
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8  

$ cat /etc/locale.conf 
LANG=en_US.UTF-8

$ locale -a
C
de_DE.utf8
en_GB.utf8
en_US.utf8
POSIX

I'll test the new user tomorrow.

Regards,
Ralf
