The locale file for en_ZA located in /usr/share/i18n/locales has the following settings: LC_Monetary ..... % "." mon_decimal_point "<U002C>" % "," mon_thousands_sep "<U00A0>" mon_grouping 3;3 positive_sign "" .... LC_NUMERIC % "." decimal_point "<U002C>" % "," thousands_sep "<U00A0>" grouping 3;3 END LC_NUMERIC - Unicode character <U002C> is for a comma "," and not a full stop "." It should be <U002E> - Unicode character <U00A0> is for a non-breaking space " " and not a comma "," . If it's meant to be a comma it should be <U002C> South Africa is on the metric system and uses a "." for decimal places. The above issue results in the regional settings having a comma in the decimal place and causes a number of errors when trying to use other software packages.
