Unfortunately I could not change the GUI of Krita to German, this is what I did so far:
I made a fresh full install of Kubuntu 20.04 on my desktop computer chosing German as main language, in Plasma's system settings -> regional settings everything is set to German.
Krita 4.2.9 was installed by using sudo apt install krita from Konsole.
Despite system settings Krita's GUI is still American English and it is not possible to change this within Krita…
The following language packs are installed in Kubuntu (additionally installing the Gnome language packs solved the localisation issue with GIMP - thank you Valdo - but not with Krita…):
language-pack-de/focal,focal,now 1:20.04+20200416 all [installiert]
language-pack-de-base/focal,focal,now 1:20.04+20200416 all [Installiert,automatisch]
language-pack-en/focal,focal,now 1:20.04+20200416 all [installiert]
language-pack-en-base/focal,focal,now 1:20.04+20200416 all [installiert]
language-pack-gnome-de/focal,focal,now 1:20.04+20200416 all [installiert]
language-pack-gnome-de-base/focal,focal,now 1:20.04+20200416 all [Installiert,automatisch]
language-pack-kde-de/focal,focal,now 1:19.10.0ubuntu1 all [installiert]
language-pack-kde-en/focal,focal,now 1:19.10.0ubuntu1 all [installiert]
Using apt search krita I discovered that there was an uninstalled krita-l10n ("translations for Krita painting program"), that hasn't been installed automatically and which I additionally installed using sudo apt install krita-l10n.
And voilà: now I can switch the GUI of Krita to any language I want - even British English! :-)
I hope this helps anyone with a similar issue!
PS: Whatever I do, Krita still crashes on quit every time (same behavior with Kubuntu 20.04 running within VirtualBox on my laptop), this did't change with the language - I hope one of the developers will and can address this problem and is reached by Dr. Konqi's bug reports…
