When you change something in .bash_profile ( providing
you are using bash ) you must either sign off and back on,
or source the file. That is type:
source .bash_profile
This causes bash to reread the file. Also make sure you export
the LANG variable. It is also possible that you have the
LANG variable set in another location. Note that bash reads from
several files depending on what is available. See the bash man page.
