Hebrew file names in Libreoffice

[Shlomo Solomon]

Thanks for your input, but as I already wrote, deleting and
re-generating the following files solved the problem:
~/.config/plasma-locale-settings.sh
~/.config/plasma-localerc
So it was certainly a "locale" problem.

BTW - from my experience, kde-link file permissions are rwxr--r-- and
that's the case with mine too :-)
