[Bug 106381] Re: Locale es_MX doesn't have "t_fmt_ampm" and "am_pm" defined

 

Hi Dan,

Thanks for your patches. I'll be happy to help you get the am/pm thing
into the Ubuntu archive, if you do the following:

1. File an upstream bug. The locale definitions in Ubuntu origin from
glibc, and we don't usually modify them without at least trying to have
the changes applied upstream.

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi?product=glibc&component=localedata

2. In the upstream bug report, please provide some kind of evidence that
the am/pm time format is in use in written Spanish in Mexico. It could
be links to e.g. governmental sites or major news sites. (There are some
old links in comment #6 above, but they are either broken or don't
support 'the case'.)

Bug #1288843, which is similar to this one, was fixed that way.

TIA
