Hi, I am new here. And I have zero experience with Qt. With that said,
I came up with a partial workaround (fixes the clock on the lock and login
screen). Basically, I went into where the Breeze theme is stored, more
specifically the file that apparently controls the clock
(`/usr/share/plasma/look-and-feel/org.kde.breeze.desktop/contents/components/Clock.qml`),
and I modified it slightly. Instead of:
```
PlasmaComponents3.Label {
text: Qt.formatTime(timeSource.data["Local"]["DateTime"])
style: softwareRendering ? Text.Outline : Text.Normal
styleColor: softwareRendering ? PlasmaCore.ColorScope.backgroundColor :
"transparent" //no outline, doesn't matter
font.pointSize: 48
Layout.alignment: Qt.AlignHCenter
}
```
I put:
```
PlasmaComponents3.Label {
text: Qt.formatTime(timeSource.data["Local"]["DateTime"], "hh:mm")
style: softwareRendering ? Text.Outline : Text.Normal
styleColor: softwareRendering ? PlasmaCore.ColorScope.backgroundColor :
"transparent" //no outline, doesn't matter
font.pointSize: 48
Layout.alignment: Qt.AlignHCenter
}
```
Notice the extra "hh:mm". I did the same for the date display (but with a
different format string of course). Then I copied the file to a safe place (to
prevent it getting reverted by a Debian update), and created a systemd script
to replace the original file as well as the sddm one on startup, fixing the bug
on the lock and login screen.
Now, what's stopping us from doing the same in the rest of KDE? Like why not
just put `Qt.formatTime(timeSource.data["Local"]["DateTime"],
Qt.LoadFile("~/.config/locale/whatever"))` everywhere, fixing it for all of
KDE? Or am I severely misunderstanding how Qt works?
