I don't understand what you mean. There's nothing related to French here. $TIME_STYLE is just a user configuration. BTW, I use coreutils under English locales. What is related to locales is %c, e.g. $ date +%c 2012-06-27T23:00:36 CEST with my $LC_TIME, which is en_DK (the well-known locale that follows the ISO 8601 standard). That's very close to my $TIME_STYLE config (CEST isn't really useful information when space is limited - there may be an slight ambiguity just twice a year). %c is what Firefox uses, e.g. on "View Page Info". That's the fixed format that should be the closest to what the user expects (via his LC_TIME locale or fallback). But it may take too much space in the context of Liferea (users may not want the timezone information, and some other users may not want the seconds either, and humans may prefer a space rather than a "T" in this particular locale). That's why a format completely configurable by the user (basically a user-provided strftime string) is preferred. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
