Hi list,
I recently noticed (took a while of head-scratching like "WTF? Something is
very weird here, but what is it?") that after the upgrade from etch to lenny,
the default display format for date/time when doing a "ls -al" for the german
locale unfortunately changed from
etch: »31.12.2008 12:34« to
lenny: »13. Dez 12:34« and (IMO abdominable...!):
lenny: »13. Dez 2006« (for older entries)
That looks horrible, indeed.
Is there an easy way to get back my desired format as it has been on etch,
preferably without the need to customize a locale file?
Probably not.
As a workaround, I changed LC_TIME to "en_US.UTF-8", as this provides me at
least with an ISO-8601-conform format, but I'd prefer the numerical display
for german like it has been on etch.
This looks promising
