Package: icedove Version: 1.5.0.8.dfsg1-1 Severity: wishlist
icedove displays mesage dates in MMDDYY format, which is really jarring for anyone used to the sane DDMMYY or even saner YYYYMMDD formats - it's impossible to tell what date is actually being displayed without viewing enough other dates (with day numbers above 12) to figure out if the first two digits are indicating Day or Month. this wouldn't normally warrant a bug report, except that there does not appear to be any configuration option to set date style. so icedove/thunderbird users are stuck with the braindamaged US date style. please fix or send this report upstream. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages icedove depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.9 Debian configuration management sy ii libatk1.0-0 1.12.3-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.2.4-4 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libfontconfig1 2.4.1-2 generic font configuration library ii libgcc1 1:4.1.1-20 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.12.4-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.20-3 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libjpeg62 6b-13 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libpango1.0-0 1.14.8-2 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.13-4 PNG library - runtime ii libstdc++6 4.1.1-20 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-4 X11 client-side library ii libxcursor1 1.1.7-4 X cursor management library ii libxext6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfixes3 1:4.0.1-5 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxft2 2.1.8.2-8 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxi6 1:1.0.1-4 X11 Input extension library ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.1-4.1 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxrandr2 2:1.1.0.2-5 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.1-3 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxt6 1:1.0.2-2 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii myspell-en-au [myspell-dic 2.1-3 English_australian dictionary for ii myspell-en-gb [myspell-dic 1:2.0.4~rc1-3 English_british dictionary for mys ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-13 compression library - runtime icedove recommends no packages. -- debconf information: * icedove/browser: GNOME -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
