            Bug ID: 492423
           Summary: ISO date not used in KDE application, GTK does apply
                    correct date settings
    Classification: Applications
           Product: systemsettings
           Version: 6.1.4
          Platform: openSUSE
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED

settings

SUMMARY
Date settings as set through systemsettings are not applied to KDE
applications, but Gnome application adhere to the setting.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Configure system to use en_CA
2. Change the date-time display to ISO with en_DK
3. Log-out and back in

OBSERVED RESULT
KDE applications do not follow my desired settings for displaying date and
time. GTK applications do follow my settings. KDE application only have en_US
as a language option and there is no way for me to change that.

EXPECTED RESULT
KDE should use my settings for date-time as desired. Make it a simple check box
"use 24-hr" clock would help already (as done in the clock applet). 

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20240826
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.5.0
Qt Version: 6.7.2
Kernel Version: 6.10.5-1-default (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
According to the Internet setting my language to en_GB (which I don't want)
should resolve the time display issue as well. That does not work and I have
now set the time to C as that (at least in settings) displays the way I want
time and date to display. However KDE applications don't follow these settings,
where GTK applications do. Also the translations work correct in GTK, but KDE
sticks to en_US and does not apply my chosen language/ translation.

I have found this bug from 2014, but that is closed:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=340982
There is also a discuss thread:
https://discuss.kde.org/t/how-do-i-properly-set-the-language-with-a-fallback/10295

Why can Gnome handle this correctly and QT/ KDE is unable to?
Why does every application apply it's own language setting? That does not make
any sense.
