Hi David, Thanks for your effort to make Ubuntu better by submitting this bug!
As regards your first item, I'm currently trying to address it in other ways than changing language-selector. Your comment on https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=687945 would be appreciated. It might make a difference, actually. I'm not sure about your second item. Programmers should be aware that the output from e.g. the date() command is affected by the locale environment. $ env | grep LC_TIME LC_TIME=sv_SE.UTF-8 $ date ons 28 nov+ 2012 09.50.+14 CET $ LC_TIME= date Wed Nov 28 09:50:22 CET 2012 Still adding a coreutils task to this bug, which carries /bin/date. As for the first example in you third item, it is possible to set the paper size separately, since there is a separate LC_PAPER locale category. The line export LC_PAPER="hu_HU.UTF-8" in ~/.profile should do it. Setting only the first day of the week is not possible, though, since all the date and time related format aspects are controlled by one single locale category, i.e. LC_TIME. Implementing such a customization possibility would be quite a significant change. In Ubuntu 13.04 or 13.10 language-selector will be replaced by the GNOME UI for setting language and locales, so such a change won't happen in language-selector. If you consider it important enough, I would recommend that you submit a separate bug; a GNOME bug would be best: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=gnome-control-center&component=Region%20%26%20Language ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #687945 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=687945 ** Also affects: glib via https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=687945 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Also affects: coreutils (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: language-selector (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1024663 Title: Custom regional formats To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/glib/+bug/1024663/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
