Hi,

i have set language to US(English) for KDE and ubuntu. But as i'm french and i communicate a lot in french, i need to have locales and date/time to french settings.

However, my computer is always in english for currency, date, time formats.
Why ?

Here are the screenshots.





What is the problem?

Thx

You got kde-l10n-fr installed?

kde-l10n-* packages are not relevant for Plasma or Frameworks, only for the KDE Applications bundle and only for Qt4 applications.

What version of ubuntu?
The screenshot shows that the localized information are correct - did you configure the locale at the system level? What does `locale` says? I'm not sure if you want to switch the entire language of your system to French (Plasma, since the port Qt5, has no special language configuration, it uses the system locales).

The clock in the panel unfortunately is a bit different and you need to select the 24 hours format from its preferences (otherwise it shows PM/AM )

Thanks for correcting me, tosky! Nothing worse than sending someone down the garden path...

Here is the result of locale command:

Code: Select all

LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en_US;fr
LC_CTYPE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_TIME=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_NAME=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_ALL=


in this case date and time are in french format, but also text in konsole... and i do not want that.
all my system should be in english, but only time, date, metric, currency should by in french.

so, if LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8" in this case, konsole is in englih as i want, but unfortunately also the date and time is in US format (and i do not want that)

if i remove fr from LANGUAGE=en_US;fr then i got LANGUAGE=en_US

in this case everything works as i want.

version of KDE is 5.12.4 and ubuntu 17.10 as written in my signature
