You have been subscribed to a public bug:
Linux Mint 14 Cinnamon, new installation (but bug was present in 13
Mate). My installation is localized for Mexico (es_MX). In México (as in
several or all spanish speaking countries in Central and South America,
but can't say for sure) we use the point as decimal symbol and the comma
as thousands symbol.
The actual es_MX configuration file copies the es_ES number
configuration, which follows the european use of comma for decimal and
point for thousands.
I manually edited my file and the problem was solved:
/usr/share/i18n/locales/es_MX
LC_NUMERIC
(-)copy "es_ES"
(+)decimal_point "<U002E>"
(+)thousands_sep "<U002C>"
(+)grouping 3;3
END LC_NUMERIC
And then doing
sudo locale-gen
