I compiled geany on my own.

No, sorry, that file does not exist.

The subdirectory locale is not available in /usr/local/share. Could that be 
the problem?

There is really no output to console from geany.

I didn't mention yet that a few items in the menus and in the 
toolbars are in German, like "Neu" or "Speichern" 
instead of "New" or "Save".
As I looked into geany.glade in the installation directory, I found out that 
only the gtk-strings come in German, yet not all the other ones.
