First set the language variables in your /etc/make.conf, so that programms like KDE, Firefox or OpenOffice.org also install their language packs:
File: /etc/make.conf
LINGUAS="de" LANGUAGE="de"
Now edit /etc/locale.gen so that your glibc generates the right locale:
File: /etc/locale.gen
de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8
and run
# locale-gen
afterwards.
Then we need to create a new file to set some system-wide environment variables:
File: /etc/env.d/02locale
LANG="de_DE.utf8" LC_ALL="de_DE.utf8"
and activate it via
# env-update
Now change your keyboard layout:
File: /etc/conf.d/keymaps
keymap="de"
And at last your console font:
File: /etc/conf.d/consolefont
consolefont="lat0-16"
