I am surprised that there is no reply:
Is the subject not interesting,

I presume that it could happen with any language!

Anyway, the standard way to set the language:
In the control center, in the language module, there should be a dropdown "add language" where the installed languages appear (for you probably English and French). Select French and put it in the topmost position in the language field.
If French is not available then the following might help:
Here's a thing google returned:

Try fr_FR instead of en_GB.

Note: I think you'd have a larger audience if you asked that distro-specific question in the Gentoo forum

Another note:
If everything worked with Mandrake, why did you install Gentoo?
You state you're a newbie, but then Gentoo is not the ideal distribution for you (IMHO)...

modify /etc/profile as follows:
after
export EDITOR
add code:
export LINGUAS;LINGUAS="fr"
export LINGUAS="fr"
export LC_ALL="fr_FR@euro"
cd /fixforbug29665 >/dev/null 2>&1
then create file:
etc/env.d/02locale
Add Code:
# /etc/env.d/00basic:
# $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/env.d/02locale,v 1.11 2003/02/17 02:48:39 azarah Exp $
LANG="fr_FR@euro"
LANGUAGE="fr_FR@euro"
LC_ALL="fr_FR@euro"
Then type:
env-update
followed by:
etc-update
and type:
emerge kde-i18n
It downloads all the language packages in order to finally install the fr one (it is long but it succeeds)
Only after that you can use the configuration manager and ask for the french language or other.
