Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: synaptic
In Synaptic I can see strange text such as: "Canonical provides critical
updates for git-doc until juli 2011." NB: "juli", not "July" as could be
expected. This is a mix of a string in English with the name of the
month "July" written in my native language Swedish.
I think the reason is that synaptic looks up the name of the month using
a different locale than the locale of the text. In the case of running
text, where the name of the month is embedded with other text, I think
it is wrong to do so.
These are my locale settings:
LANG=en_US.utf8
LANGUAGE=en_US.utf8
LC_CTYPE=sv_SE.utf8
LC_NUMERIC=sv_SE.utf8
LC_TIME=sv_SE.utf8
LC_COLLATE=sv_SE.utf8
LC_MONETARY=sv_SE.utf8
LC_MESSAGES=en_US.utf8
LC_PAPER=sv_SE.utf8
LC_NAME=sv_SE.utf8
LC_ADDRESS=sv_SE.utf8
LC_TELEPHONE=sv_SE.utf8
LC_MEASUREMENT=sv_SE.utf8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=sv_SE.utf8
LC_ALL=
