Public bug reported:
ksh doesn't print localized date-time properly anymore. E.g. the output of the
following both commands should be the same ('So 9. Nov 07:15:31 MET 2025'):
/bin/ksh93 -c 'LC_TIME=de_DE.UTF-8 printf "%T\n"'
/bin/ksh93 -c 'LC_TIME=de_DE.UTF-8 date'
So the month and day of week name abbreviation gets translated to an
empty string (' 9 07:15:59 MET 2025').
This works on jammy as expected, but not on noble anymore.
For locale en_US.UTF-8 as well as C both works as expected. E.g.:
/bin/ksh93 -c 'LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8 printf "%T\n"'
/bin/ksh93 -c 'LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8 date'
Not sure, whether this has something to do with the locale packages?
jammy: locales 2.35-0ubuntu3.8
noble: locales 2.39-0ubuntu8.6
