[arch-general] Question about switching to 12 hour time
Hi all, As an orca user, I am confused about something. My arch machine is set to use local time which means that if I am using orca and quarry the time orca gives me the time correctly in 12 hour time but in looking at emails in thunderbird, the time and date are spoken in 24 hour time for example, Its about 6:33 p.m here in the eastern u.s which orca would speak correctly but if I were to use orca I would here the message info with the date format spoken as 2020/13/02 followed by 18:33. Is there something in a configuration file somewhere or something in orca that I need to change? Just wondering as this is confusing me. BTW, my locale is set to en_US.UTF-8. Thanks. Will continue to do some digging but thought I would ask here just incase I am missing something obvious. Matthew

This requires local users/attackers with shell access. Not necessarily a concern in every environment. Best regards, Karol Babioch signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

[arch-general] "date" C++ library packaging
Waybar [1] just had an update where it pulled in a project called "date" [2]. I'm hesitant to package this under the name "date" since GNU coreutils shares a binary with that name. But this isn't a totally obscure library. Should I persuade upstream to change the name? Should I package it under another name? Or should I lay claim to the unused "date" package name and go on with my life?
