Subject: [Bug localedata/12582] New: Incorrect date and time formats in en_SG locale
Date: Mon, 14 Mar 2011 15:56:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-12582-716@http.sourceware.org/bugzilla/> (raw)

http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12582

           Summary: Incorrect date and time formats in en_SG locale
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: localedata
        AssignedTo: libc-locales@sources.redhat.com
        ReportedBy: b3virq3b@gmail.com


Downstream report at https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/699886

Currently under English (Singapore) locale date_fmt is formatted like this:
Friday 07,January,2011 11:44:44 PM SGT

The commas are weird and are not the convention in Singapore. The attached
patch changes that and other related formats to better values:

t_fmt_ampm from "%I:%M:%S %p %Z" to "%I:%M:%S %p" (removed time zone; redundant
because Singapore spans only one time zone)
t_fmt from "%I:%M:%S  %Z" to "%T" (changed to 24h time)
d_t_fmt from "%A %d,%B,%Y %I:%M:%S  %Z" to "%a %d %b %Y %r" (removed awkward
commas, use abbreviated month names)
d_fmt from "%A %d,%B,%Y" to "%d/%m/%Y"
