Public bug reported:
In GNOME, the setting /org/gnome/desktop/interface/clock-format has
value "12h" or "24h" and determines whether GNOME applications such as
Nautilus display 12-hour or 24-hour time. In vanilla GNOME's control
center there's a Time & Date applet which lets the user set this value.
In Ubuntu's control center, the 12/24-hour control in theTime & Date
applet sets a different value, namely /com/canonical/indicator/datetime
/time-format. This setting determines how the clock appears in the
Unity panel, but has no effect on GNOME applications.
This leads to a poor and confusing user experience. The format in the
Unity panel may not match that in GNOME applications. The user has no
way to control the GNOME 12/24 hour setting through the Ubuntu control
center.
I think the best solution here is to eliminate
/com/canonical/indicator/datetime/time-format, to let the user configure
the underlying GNOME setting and to use that to decide how to display
the clock in Unity.
