[Bug 1005459] Re: Polish date translation

 

Please note that both month and weekday names are fetched from the
Polish locale.

As regards the uppercase first letter, I can't reproduce that detail.
When switching to a Polish locale, weekday and month names are displayed
with only lowercase letters (as in the locale).

The composition of the long date string can be modified via the
Launchpad translation interface:

https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/wily/+source/indicator-
datetime/+pots/indicator-datetime/pl/11/+translate

A Polish solution to this issue might be to use abbreviated names
instead, i.e. 'translate' the string "%A, %e %B %Y" to "%a, %e %b %Y".
It would expand to e.g.:

$ LC_TIME=pl_PL.UTF-8 date +"%a, %e %b %Y"
