>Description:
if I set $LC_TIME to de_DE.ISO8859-1 the date is still in English.
it doesn't matters if I set LC_ALL.
date.c queries LC_ALL instead of LC_TIME, btw.
/usr/share/locale/de_DE.ISO8859-1 only contains LC_CTYPE.
LC_TIME and LC_NUMERIC, LC_MONETARY are missing.
so, I copied them from FreeBSD, but date still shows:
$ date
Mon Oct 3 09:26:00 CEST 2005
instead of
Mo 3 Okt 2005 09:26:00 CEST
is this because localization isn't working in general with NetBSD ?
>How-To-Repeat:
set LC_* and use date.
it should display it in your locale language.
>Fix:
add missing LC_* files to base.
