Created attachment 161514 [details]
The Date & Time dialog showing a 12 hour AM/PM format instead of a 24 hour format

SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols.
See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open System Settings then Regional Settings
2. Set the Language to American English and the Time to the "C" time format near the top of the list. The latter should list the time in a 24 hour.
3. Log in then out again.

OBSERVED RESULT

KDE Plasma is still showing time almost everywhere outside the Digital Clock widget in the Icons-only Task Manager in a 12 hour AM/PM format instead of the designated 24 hour format.

For example, a time of 15:55 is represented as 3:55 PM.

EXPECTED RESULT

KDE Plasma shows the time everywhere in the chosen format. 15:55 should show 15:55, not 3:55 PM.

Comment 1 Nate Graham 2023-09-11 19:18:42 UTC
LC_TIME=en_FI.UTF-8

That seems suspicious. How did that get there? Can you paste the contents of ~/.config/plasma-localerc and /etc/locale.conf? Thanks!
Comment 2 kimimaru 2023-09-12 15:34:07 UTC
Thanks for the reply, and sure thing! Here they are.

Comment 3 Nate Graham 2023-09-12 15:48:16 UTC
Thanks. Can you confirm whether you deliberately set "Measurements" to en_FI.UTF-8 on the settings page?

Unfortunately I can't see what it's actually set to because there is no checkmark in the GUI. However I do want it in metric and have it set to that.
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2023-09-12 18:15:04 UTC
Ok, so probably you set it to that intentionally because it was just some random locale that implements Metric--which is fine. The mystery is why LC_TIME is also getting set to en_FI. Any ideas, Han?

Could be the bug that caused mismatch between the option item and the config item. https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/3056
Comment 7 Nate Graham 2023-09-13 15:26:37 UTC
Ah yup, that would be it.
