For those languages that have nouns with a genitive form (usually

This has been posted here a few months ago as well.

In a nutshell, the genitive form of a noun like "April" is a single
word in Greek and looks like "Apriliou".
In English, the genitive form is not a single word, it's "of April".
In Ubuntu 16.04, the locale for the full month name in Greek was
"April" (Απρίλης).
In Ubuntu 18.04, the new locale has "Apriliou" (Απριλίου) instead.

I do not have the definitive list of the locations of the date format
strings.

Thanks for that info!

Just run this command:

$ LC_TIME=el_GR.UTF-8 locale alt_mon
Ιανουάριος;Φεβρουάριος;Μάρτιος;Απρίλιος;Μάιος;Ιούνιος;Ιούλιος;Αύγουστος;Σεπτέμβριος;Οκτώβριος;Νοέμβριος;Δεκέμβριος

Do you know if there is a strftime() conversion specification available yet, similar to %B, which refers to this new alt_mon component in the locale definitions?
