[Bug 1072019] Re: date translated in an English system with Italian localization

 

This bug is still present today. I installed Ubuntu 20.10 in English and
I am located in Belgium. System configured automatically the formats as
“Belgien”, i.e. with German dates & times.

Installing French allows me to select the “Belgique” format which
displays the dates & times in French. Although still inconsistent, it
will be less disturbing for me.

It would be better however if the language of dates & times was the
system language, independently of the regional format.

Bug description:
  Release of Ubuntu:12.10
  Package Version: gnome-control-center 3.4.2 and 3.5.x
  Expected Results: system language setting needs to be respected
  Actual Results: date is translated following the reginal format settings

  Hallo
  I want to have my system fully in English, but actually the date  is translated in Italian.
  I think that this depend on the fact that I choose Italian in regional format (but just to have numbering and currency that I use), I don't want to have the date translated into another language.
  See attached screenshot.

  Thanks
  Fabio
