uu-date does not follow LC_TIME

Open dblsaiko opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

uu-date always prints the (default) %c format like this, regardless of the LC_TIME setting:

% LC_TIME=en_DK.utf8 uu-date
Tue Feb 15 13:03:36 2022

Expected (output from GNU coreutils date):

% LC_TIME=en_DK.utf8 date
2022-02-15T13:03:36 CET

Tested on uutils 0.0.12 under Gentoo.

If I'm correct, this is blocked by us using chrono to display the date. The localization of that crate is still unstable an incomplete, requiring a unstable-locales flag.
