[issue10135] Format specifier 'n' not working

[Boštjan Mejak]

Boštjan Mejak <bostjan.me...@gmail.com> added the comment:

So do I need additional things to set in my code if I use the 'n' format
specifier in order for it to be locale-aware? So using just the 'n' format
specifier is not enough? Please explain in depth.

</div>It looks like the float.__format__ code is correctly using the value of 
decimal_point = &#39;.&#39;. It also agrees with locale.format().<br>

How are you setting the locale? The problem appears to be either how you are 
setting the locale or the contents of the locale, not in the formatting 
code.<br>
