I suspect there is a problem with the locale for South Africa. The
locale file for en_ZA located in /usr/share/i18n/locales has the
following settings:
LC_Monetary
.....
% "."
mon_decimal_point "<U002C>"
% ","
mon_thousands_sep "<U00A0>"
mon_grouping 3;3
positive_sign ""
....
LC_NUMERIC
% "."
decimal_point "<U002C>"
% ","
thousands_sep "<U00A0>"
grouping 3;3
END LC_NUMERIC
- Unicode character <U002C> is for a comma "," and not a full stop "." It
should be <U002E>
- Unicode character <U00A0> is for a non-breaking space " " and not a comma ","
. If it's meant to be a comma it should be <U002C>
South Africa is on the metric system and uses a "." for decimal places.
The above issue results in the regional settings having a comma in the
decimal place and causes a number of errors when trying to use other
software packages.
