[Bug 1440275] [NEW] Ubuntu GNOME only allows regional format setting for US, UK, Canada, Australia, and NZ

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I installed Ubuntu GNOME 15.04 Beta 2. I set the system locale to Korean
language, which worked okay. When I tried to set regional format (date,
time, currency, number, metric, etc.), however, the options are only
limited to 5 regions: US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand. I do live
in the US, but I want to set the regional format in Korean because that
goes with the system language. I currently set the regional format to
that of Canada because I am not familiar with US system of yards, feet
and pounds. As you can see in the attached screenshot, the date format
shown on the middle of the task bar is a mixture of English and Korean
(Frankenstein-ish).

As I browsed through the bug report launchpad site, I found this bug has
a long history which dates back to Ubuntu version 9.04. I have installed
Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 LTS on my other computer and it does not have the
same bug. I guess it has something to do with the newly introduced
"systemd"?

I would very much like to see this bug is fixed ASAP (at least before
the release of 15.04 proper version). I love GNOME interface, but this
bug annoys me. Regards.
