This is intentional, see the coreutils NEWS file: ,----[ /usr/share/doc/coreutils/NEWS.gz ] | ls now defaults to --time-style='locale', not --time-style='posix-long-iso'. | However, the 'locale' time style now behaves like 'posix-long-iso' | if your locale settings appear to be messed up. This change | attempts to have the default be the best of both worlds. `---- The locales did not change, just the behavior of ls.
