[Bug 1130501] Re: Spanish; Castilian (Puerto Rico) and Spanish; Castilian (United States) Regional Formats use 24-hour format by default

[Walter Beckerleg]

I couldn't find eglibc on Synaptic, only a "eglibc-source", which was
not marked as installed. How can I verify the version of eglibc that I
have?

Title:
  Spanish; Castilian (Puerto Rico) and Spanish; Castilian (United
  States) Regional Formats use 24-hour format by default

Status in “eglibc” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The default format for the clock in the Spanish; Castilian (Puerto
  Rico) and Spanish; Castilian (United States) Regional Formats
  (selected in Language Support) is the 24-hour format (displays "13:30"
  rather than "1:30 PM"). These countries use the 12-hour format, so
  this default setting is incorrect. While you can change the clock
  format in the Date and Time Settings regardless of the current
  Regional Format, the clock in the Login Screen, the Guest Session, and
  any newly made User Account will use the default clock format (which
  is the 24-hour format in this case). In addition, I think it's worth
  mentioning that Valve's Steam gaming software is affected by this
  issue. Steam uses an "In-Game Overlay" that can display the current
  time to the user while playing a game. However, this Overlay clock
  uses the default clock format (again, this being the 24-hour format),
  even if the clock format for the current user is set to the 12-hour
  format.
