Package: zim Version: 0.65-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I recently upgraded zim from version 0.63 to 0.65. Unfortunately, on one of my machines zim showed weird behaviour: It could no longer display the calendar widget of the Journal plugin, and switching to the page for the current day (using Alt+D keyboard shortcut) opened an empty page saying "None" instead of today's date. This behaviour showed on some machines but not on others. The difference between these machines is the default locale for the system. After some testing I found out the following: LC_ALL=C zim <notebook>, and LC_ALL=POSIX zim <notebook> shows the previously described malformed behaviour, while LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 zim <notebook>, and any other UTF-8 enabled locale I tried (such as en_US.utf8) shows the proper date along with the calendar widget in the sidepane. The old version of Zim (0.63) could always generate a proper date string. I am not sure what is the cause for this behaviour change but it is not depending on a particular notebook - this behaviour is reproducible with a new notebook as well. Anyway, no matter what the locale, Zim should be able to generate a proper date string and show the calendar widget if requested.
