Description Pavel 2016-07-06 07:44:27 UTC

I use Plasma 5.7.
I calendar plasmoid months names are in both Russian and English.

My locale settings:
LANG=en_GB.utf8
LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.utf8
LC_NUMERIC=ru_RU.utf8
LC_TIME=ru_RU.utf8
LC_COLLATE=ru_RU.utf8
LC_MONETARY=ru_RU.utf8
LC_MESSAGES=en_GB.utf8
LC_PAPER=ru_RU.utf8
LC_NAME=ru_RU.utf8
LC_ADDRESS=ru_RU.utf8
LC_TELEPHONE=ru_RU.utf8
LC_MEASUREMENT=ru_RU.utf8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=ru_RU.utf8

Reproducible: Always

The problem is that the agenda part on the left just uses Qt.locale to format the date which uses the LC_something as language for the translated name. The month ontop of the calendar has some "clever" logic to get the translated name from the current LANG instead.

See Bug 353715

Comment 4 Allan 2016-08-03 17:35:20 UTC

Since both the tooltip and calendar plasmoid are using the language for LC_TIME except for the month on top, shouldn't the month also use the same language as LC_TIME, without any trickery with LANG?

Comment 5 Martin Klapetek 2016-08-03 22:17:14 UTC

They should actually all use LANG. If my LANG is Czech and I use US datetime format, I still want all titles to be in Czech, not US.

I remember Thiago had a reason for this to be a WONTFIX. Cannot find the thread on the Qt mailing lists right now.

Comment 7 Alexander Mentyu 2017-12-06 12:07:42 UTC

Currently it's displayed as 'M12' in the widget for 'December' in russian locale

Comment 10 Nate Graham 2021-08-07 18:39:48 UTC

This should have been fixed in Plasma 5.22. Can anyone confirm whether or not it is still a problem?

Comment 11 Pavel 2021-08-07 22:52:19 UTC

I don't observe this anymore
