I am in New Zealand and I'm having problems with the en_NZ locale. I've
noticed for some time in mozilla my dates appear in %M-%D-%YY format,
and it is rather frustrating and confusing. I was doing some work date
work C and noticed glib was giving me the wrong date formats as well, so
I think theres something up in the locales giving wrong date format. If
I do date +"%x" at the prompt, I get MM/DD/YY when I expect the locale
to return DD/MM/YY instead. I can't find any difference between the
en_NZ and en_GB locales to suggest what is the cause of the dates been
wrong.
According to http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=121 ,
it was marked as invalid. I think it's OK to close this report.
If you have another information, please let us know.
