Public bug reported: I'm on image #203 on mako and use a German locale.
In other apps, the 24h format is used (which is what I, and other Germans, would expect). In the messaging app however, I see "11:34 nachm.", which is supposed to mean "23:34". Unfortunately "nachm." is short for "nachmittag", so "afternoon", which hardly makes sense for 23:34. This is due to the fact, that we have no good way of expressing AM/PM in German, as it's simply not used. If the messaging-app used the 24h format on a German locale, the problem would be fixed. ** Affects: messaging-app (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: notes-app (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: avengers ** Summary changed: - Sticks to 12h format + Uses 12h instead of 24h format (on a German locale) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Apps bug tracking, which is subscribed to messaging-app in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1360099 Title: Uses 12h instead of 24h format (on a German locale) Status in “messaging-app” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “notes-app” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I'm on image #203 on mako and use a German locale.
