** Description changed: `/usr/share/i18n/locales/nl_NL` has a wrong value for thousands_sep. Currently it's: "" It should be "." Source 1 (in dutch): https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Getalnotatie#Decimaalteken_en_scheidingsteken_voor_duizendtallen This source says that a period is used, but to avoid confusion with the English notation (which is ",") a space can be used. Currently it is neither a period nor a space. Source 2 (in English): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_separator#Examples_of_use Search for Netherlands in the table. The second note after the table also mentions the use of a period as separator in everyday life and a space for technical writing. + EDIT (Only had Wikipedia links) + Source 3 (in Dutch): https://onzetaal.nl/taaladvies/getallen-in-letters-of-cijfers#:~:text=In%20getallen%20van%20vijf%20of,%E2%82%AC%202.300%20als%20%E2%82%AC%202300. + + Translated: In cases of five or more digits a period is used as separator: 70.000, 234.000, etc. In case of four digits the separator can be left out: 7.600 is as equally possible as 76000, same for € 2.300 and € 2300. + END OF EDIT + Suggested fix: set the thousand separator to a period. (ubuntu-bug locale didn't allow me to file a bug report, so this is a handwritten report). ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: locales (I think)
