Did you find the Swedish language file?
Upload it to wp-includes\languages?
Set the define ('WPLANG', 'se_SE'); (might not be correct syntax for Swedish) in wp-config.php?

I can’t see what has gone wrong with what should happen.

Yes, I found the file. But what exactly should the name of the file be in wp-includes\languages?
jea: one post per topic please 🙂

I did check it out carefully, but it did not help much. And it seems like I am not the only one having this problem.

Obviously WordPress does not support Swedish, and obviously WordPress documentation and experteese is wrong.
Trying something else!
[Moderated due to offensive content]
If you come back……this works:
// Change this to localize WordPress. A corresponding MO file for the
// chosen language must be installed to wp-includes/languages.
// For example, install de.mo to wp-includes/languages and set WPLANG to ‘de’
// to enable German lanuage support.
define (‘WPLANG’, ‘sv’);
/* Stop editing */
and the file
/wp-includes/languages/sv.mo
It’s the same advice as I gave here:
http://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/40023#post-225146
so all I can guess at now is that the theme you have is not correctly written to accept localisation.
Offensive content? I honestly wasn’t being offensive. Well, except for the badly translated Swedish part. Anywho, here’s the original (and slightly truncated) version:
We apologize for not having any officially supported Swedish content. But, as a volunteer-based free blogging platform, we lack both the money and time to afford and attend a suitable course in Swedish translation. Until then, all we can offer is the support here (in English) and these two articles:

http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Installing_WordPress_in_Your_Language
It should be made clear that the modification in the config file should always follow the exact name of the .mo file (without the extension). Or – as an alternative – the .mo file should be re-named to what you put into the config file. E.g. if the .mo file is sv_SE.ISO-8859-1.mo you have to put in the config file exactly
sv_SE.ISO-8859-1; and if the file is named sv.mo – the config file will have sv etc.
