Quite possibly, yes. If I understand that discussion correctly, the gist is
that LO isn't picking up the OS locale settings. If it were to do so, I agree
that would probably resolve this issue.
But here's an interesting thing: in the LO Preferences under Language
Settings/Languages, the settings I have are:
Language Of:
User interface: Default - English (USA)
Formats:
Locale setting: Default - English (UK)
Decimal separator key: (ticked) Same as local setting (.)
What's interesting to me is that AFAIK, the decimal separator for both English
(USA) and English (UK) is a period, not a comma. Yet LO is nevertheless
expecting a comma, not a period, in numbers.
Not sure why that would be. I considered the possibility that it might be
using the _document's_ language setting, which was originally English (South
Africa). But changing that to English (USA) did not make a difference.
Calculations involving numbers with a decimal comma worked, those involving
numbers with a decimal period did not.
Curiouser and curiouser.
