STINNER Victor <[email protected]> added the comment:
On Linux, cfmt.py fails on fr_FR locale (the only valid locale in the list of
tested locales):
---
fr_FR [mer. 12 janv. 2011 11:30:35 CET] %a %d %B %Y %H:%M:%S %Z != %a %d %b %Y
%T %Z
---
The problem is the month format: locale.nl_langinfo(locale.D_T_FMT) returns '%a
%d %b %Y %T %Z', but _strptime (LocaleTime().LC_date_time) uses '%a %d %B %Y
%H:%M:%S %Z' => '%b' vs '%B'.
_strptime.LocalTime.__calc_date_time() uses strftime('%c') and then parse the
output to get the complete format. But it uses strftime('%c') with the march
month, and in french, march is formatted 'mars' for both month formats (%b
*and* %B).
_strptime.LocalTime.__calc_date_time() should detect that the month has the
same format with %b and %B, and try other timestamps (other months).
