I think if you add the line:

Such file does not exist in Ubuntu.

Ummm.... why yes it does.

/etc/rc.conf doesn't. /etc/rc.local does.

And if it doesn't on your system the file
simply contains:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh -e

# rc.local

Even if it did, it would change the
language system-wide, for all users. That's not my purpose. I want to change
the language for a single user.

I don't use Kubuntu myself. With regular Ubuntu, when you choose the
language in the login manager, it sets $LANG appropriatelly. You can
also set environment variables for your whole GNOME session in
~/.gnomerc.
