I am running Kubuntu 9.04 with KDE 4.3.1.
In System settings, my region/country is set to Brazil, language is US English. I have not added any languages, I chose it during installation.
So everything in the interface is in English, but all units, measurements, currency, time etc. corresponds with what is normal here in Brazil. I am a Norwegian that do not speak Portuguese well enough to operate any programs in Portuguese. :-) (working on it!)
If I run "locale" in a terminal I get this:
This does not correspond with what I have set in the system settings.
The result is that Skype is displaying the time in 12h format, and I really prefer 24h format. It would also mean that any program that rely on the locale setting for getting their regional settings correct, will have a problem.
Why does not the locale settings update according to the System settings in KDE?
