If GNOME does not give you the option to use 12-hour clock at all, I would say
that's a GNOME bug; I would say it should only adjust defaults according to the
locale information.

We already have a bug for en_GB having or not having ampm info.

ok, been playing about as i just found out this prob is not on my home server
and looked to find out why, and i kind of have, if i do locale on my server i get:

nullsleep nullsleep # locale
LANG=
LC_CTYPE="POSIX"
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME="POSIX"
LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=
nullsleep nullsleep # date +"%p"
AM
nullsleep nullsleep #

on every thing else i get:

localhost nullsleep # locale
LANG=en_GB.utf8
LC_CTYPE="en_GB.utf8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_GB.utf8"
LC_TIME="en_GB.utf8"
LC_COLLATE="en_GB.utf8"
LC_MONETARY="en_GB.utf8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_GB.utf8"
LC_PAPER="en_GB.utf8"
LC_NAME="en_GB.utf8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_GB.utf8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_GB.utf8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_GB.utf8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_GB.utf8"
LC_ALL=
localhost nullsleep # date +"%p"
localhost nullsleep # 

I hope this helps?

it is glibc, or so all the information i have got tells me, it is in
/usr/share/i18n/locale/en_GB, i just add: 

%
% Strings for AM/PM
%
am_pm   "<U0041><U004D>";"<U0050><U004D>"
%
% Appropriate AM/PM time representation (%r)
%       "%l:%M:%S %p"
t_fmt_ampm "<U0025><U006C><U003A><U0025><U004D><U003A><U0025><U0053><U0020>/
<U0025><U0070>"
 date_fmt	"<U0025><U0061><U0020><U0025><U0062><U0020><U0025><U0065>/
 <U0020><U0025><U0048><U003A><U0025><U004D><U003A><U0025><U0053><U0020>/
 <U0025><U005A><U0020><U0025><U0059>"
 
And Gnome uses the 12 hour clock then.

Sorry, it's not clear what "it" is - that depends on exactly what locale
information GNOME uses to decide on whether to show 12-hour or 24-hour clock.
Please ask GNOME developers about that - we need exact langinfo field or
strftime format specifier name.

strftime() with exactly what format string in exactly what locale should have
exactly how different output from what it has now?
