           Summary: strftime() needs to support more locale formats of
                    conversion specifications
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.13
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: localedata
        AssignedTo: libc-locales@sources.redhat.com
        ReportedBy: mousavi.arash@gmail.com


There are some alternative formats for conversion specifications that cause
strftime() to show alternative numeric symbols for the current locale such as
%OH, %OI, %Om, ....
Unfortunatly the lack of some alternative like %OY makes some applications like
GNOME/Evoluation crash after translation:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=553770 [it's really an old bug!]
It would be so nice if devlopers could enhance this feature. Sorry, I'm not an
advance bug reporter!
