[Bug 1434874] [NEW] Qt4 applications show wrong number format, making them unusable

 

Public bug reported:

I am using Scribus 1.4.2 on Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 with the locale ku_TR,
which uses roman script, and arabic numbers like 123456789.

All numbers in Scribus are displayed in Arabic-Indic numerals like
٠١٢٣٤٥٦٧٨٩ . For people who are not used to these numerals, Scribus
becomes practically unusable.

This is independent from the user interface language of Scribus.

It seems to be a Qt4 problem, since it appears in several Qt4
applications (Clementine preferences, Qt configuration)

** Affects: qt4-x11 (Ubuntu)
