[Bug 997248] Re: Inconsistency in decimal point for es_MX and es_NI locale

[Daniel Holbach]

Thanks a lot for your work on this.

To go ahead, do you think you could forward your change along with some
explanation or a link to an official document to
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi?product=glibc using the
"localedata" component? It's important that Ubuntu does not get out of
sync with other parts of the Free Software world and the change is
approved by authorities.

Thanks in any case. If you need any more help with this, please let us
know.

Title:
  Inconsistency in decimal point for es_MX and es_NI locale

Status in “langpack-locales” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  In México we use the point as decimal separator and the comma to
  separate thousands, But in the es_MX locale in Ubuntu precise it is
  set as in Europe; In System configuration> Language Support > Regional
  Formats I found in the example that the character that separates the
  thousands and millions is the point (.) and the one that separates the
  decimals is the comma (,) and that's incorrect for México, See
  attachment.

  This problem is seen when I try to use the calculator, or other gnome
  program that involves math, it's confusing.
