[Bug localedata/3768] en_GB should have am/pm representation


------- Additional Comments From txe_stc at yahoo dot com  2007-09-04 13:13 -------
Argh. Yes, my bad to have taken my eye off of this.

It seems Debian and RedHat both patch this at the distribution level to add an
AM/PM representation. I guess this is why no-one else is asking for it:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=240901

They seem to have gone for

am_pm="AM;PM"
t_fmt_ampm="%l:%M:%S %P %Z"

which differs from what I suggested.

However your policy of "It's current every-day use that counts." I don't think I
can argue with. It would be nice to pick 12hour as an option, but agree that's
just a nice to have.
