Description Gregor Rakar 2004-04-14 00:10:31 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.0)
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs
OS:          Linux

When I type a number or KCalc calculates something with a decimal point, it does not use selected locale for displaying numbers. Example: for sl locale it should be displayed, that 1/2 is 0,5 and not 0.5 (as it is english way)

Only a minor bug, I know

This still happens using kcalc 1.6 and KDE 3.3.2 on Debian (testing).  
The locale is used for the "keypad" part of the display, but not for the number you are working on - which tends to be where you look, anyway!  
The decimal point shows correctly on the "keypad" but not for the number displayed, and the thousands separator isn't used for the number displayed at all.
