Fabio, Thanks for your effort to improve Ubuntu by reporting this issue!
I agree on your description, and that it's a bug, but I would not consider it to be a language-selector bug. Rather this problem is about many date/time displaying apps that simplify too much. In this case I think it's the indicator-datetime package that needs to be tweaked, so I changed the affected distro accordingly. While awaiting that somebody fixes the bug, I suggest that you open Language Support, click the Help button and go to the "Advanced format settings" section. Setting LC_TIME to "en_DK.UTF-8" may give the desired result for you. ** Package changed: language-selector (Ubuntu) => indicator-datetime (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to language-selector in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1072019 Title: date translated in an English system with Italian localization Status in GNOME Shell: Confirmed Status in “indicator-datetime” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Release of Ubuntu:12.10 Package Version: gnome-control-center 3.4.2 and 3.5.x Expected Results: system language setting needs to be respected Actual Results: date is translated following the reginal format settings Hallo I want to have my system fully in English, but actually the date is translated in Italian. I think that this depend on the fact that I choose Italian in regional format (but just to have numbering and currency that I use), I don't want to have the date translated into another language. See attached screenshot.
