Bug ID: 453854 Summary: Please follow BinaryUnitDialect, appropriately Product: plasma-systemmonitor Version: 5.24.4 Platform: Gentoo Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: ksysguard-b...@kde.org Reporter: bugs.kde....@e3q.eu CC: ahiems...@heimr.nl, plasma-b...@kde.org Depends on: 57240 Blocks: 364321 Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY The system monitor does not seem to follow the BinaryUnitDialect config option. Likely it is just a matter of replacing some function with some higher-level ones, as other apps do the right thing (e.g., Krusader). STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Set BinaryUnitDialect=2 in [Locale] section of $KDEHOME/.config/kdeglobals (setting to metric/SI instead of IEC) 2. Start system monitor 3. Look at some of the stats showing OBSERVED RESULT IEC formatting is used everywhere instead of metric EXPECTED RESULT Metric formatting is used everywhere it is appropriate (I think the only place IEC might make sense is for memory size and usage when a preference for metric is expressed) SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The BinaryUnitDialect config option is described in Bug 57240. This option is for now still without a GUI, but Bug 364321 makes it clear this is about to change. So apps like the system monitor should be made ready to follow BinaryUnitDialect.
