Why would you not respect the system's LC_NUMERIC settings?? Yes, I live in the netherlands and want most settings like currency and dates in dutch, but I DON'T WANT A COMMA AS DECIMAL SEPARATOR! It's not just that libreoffice ignores LC_NUMERIC, but I can now no longer find a way to set a period as decimal separator at all.
1. Respect a user's LC_NUMERIC setting 2. If you decide not to do so, at least allow an easy setting in the application. This has been an issue for forever and it only appears to get worse! Fix this already. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1070210 Title: [upstream] Libreoffice always uses "letter" paper Status in LibreOffice: Confirmed Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: For new documents, libreoffice chooses always "letter" paper.
