Package: locales Version: 2.19-13 Severity: normal Tags: l10n Dear Maintainer,
Thanks for working in locales. The "date_fmt" string in es_ES (and in ca_ES as one friend confirmed) appears to produce a wrong order in the dates. With the standard generated file (including the line date_fmt="%a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Z %Y" ) $ date vie nov 28 02:25:05 CET 2014 This looks wrong for es_ES (and ca_ES), the day of the month should go before the name of the month. $ date +"%a %e %b %H:%M:%S %Z %Y" vie 28 nov 02:26:27 CET 2014 This is correct. So I suppose the date_fmt line should be changed from date_fmt="%a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Z %Y" to date_fmt="%a %e %b %H:%M:%S %Z %Y" I'm not sure if this is a problem of Debian or a problem in glibc in general. I also don't know if other locales derived from "es" or "ca" are affected. But at least, I can confirm that my proposal is correct for es_ES and ca_ES. Below you can find the details about locale of my system.
