Michel,

There is a "[" missing in Formats] your reply above, chedk that the
file on disk is OK.

If making   Format]   --->   [Format]   doesn't work, put the old file
back and see if Konsole starts using it.

Also check that the read permissions and ownership on the
.config/plasma-localerc file are correct after editing.
