Public bug reported:
The clock defaults to "%d %b" but the locale is wrong. The clock
appears to use the system locale rather than what the user has chosen
for their language. What happens is that with "%d %b" the clock shows
the month in the wrong language. What would be the expected behavior is
that the clock shows the month in the language selected by the user in
XFCE itself.
For example if /etc/default/locale has this:
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="fi_FI.UTF-8"
then the clock displays the month in Finnish regardless of which
language the user has set in XFCE, such as Swedish or English. The
user's XFCE settings should override the locale for all XFCE programs
and applets.
