If LOV means List of Values then its easy...
Open config_defaults_inc.php and search for
$g_severity_enum_string.
Copy it to config_inc.php and modify it as you wish:
$g_severity_enum_string = '10:feature, 15:my_new_value, 20:trivial, etc';
then go to your language file in lang/ directory
and search for
$s_severity_enum_sting and update it too.
thats all the magic...

You don't need to edit language files if you are only removing entries. If you are adding entries, then you should update the custom strings file rather than modifying the distributed language files, otherwise, your updates will be overwritten with the next upgrade. See the manual for more information.
