Bug Description
Binary package hint: kdebase
When a user installs the kde hebrew translations, the UI gets reversed. We will call this mode RTL.
Now, for some reason, kdesktop (the right click on the desktop, ctrl+f2, etc) are all LTR, and still translated to hebrew, but missing several translations. The problem is that kdesktop does not load kdelibs.mo at all. Other applications DO load it. This explains why the UI is LTR and not RTL: the string which reverses the UI is found in kdelibs.po, and it's not been loaded.
This can be verified by killing kdesktop, and "strace -f -eopen -o 1.txt kdesktop"

When you right-click on an icon on the desktop, some lines appear untraslated ("Cut" and "Copy" for example). In my opinion this is the result of the same bug. Strace output confirms that kdesktop doesn't load kdelibs.mo, at least not directly. Marking as "Confirmed".
