https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=231771 Bug ID: 231771 Summary: 24-hour clock time notation Product: Base System Version: CURRENT Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: conf Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: public2016@hauptsignal.at Created attachment 197559 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=197559&action=edit patch file for adapting the locales In the german speaking countries it is very very uncommon to use the 12-hour clock time notation. So it is a bit vexing that for example the 'w' or 'uptime' command use this format to display times. The 'w' command has a switch wheter to use the 12-hour or 24-hour clock. It is decided on the existence of a valid 12-hour clock format (am/pm) in the users locale. If the definiton is empty, the tool uses the 24-hour clock. My suggestion is, to remove the three relevant lines in each locale files for Austria and Germany. A possible patch file for the files "de_AT.UTF-8.src", "de_AT.ISO8859-15.src", "de_DE.UTF-8.src", "de_DE.ISO8859-15.src" of the source directory "share/timedef" is attached. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
