Simply adding the same comments > over and over won't magically solve it. I don't understand your reply. In either case, I don't see it as an issue anymore: I patched the underlying Qt code (qlocale.cpp, Gentoo) on my machines. The patch simply modifies QLocale::dateFormat(FormatType)→QString and returns the format string I prefer to use (such as "yyyy-MMM-dd"). I guess I could have also used LD_PRELOAD to modify the behavior of function QLocale::dateFormat(FormatType), but that wouldn't cover the case of compiler inlining the function (within qlocale.cpp, or in case of -flto). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
