[Bug 495798] Re: [kubuntu] ubiquity should use time zone chosen to store locale

[Harald Sitter]

Interesting idea. Technically not too trivial though as we'd have to
store the selected city on the system somehow, so we can pick it up when
aligning the initial KDE workspace configuration. Additionally we'd have
to find a way to map this information to KDE country values.

I am not sure this is a worthwhile effort, considering most people will
install with their language from which we can map pretty closely to a
country setup. So if I install with de_AT we will map that to Austria in
KDE's country setting. I'll have to think a bit about this.

Thanks for the suggestion though.

Title:
  [kubuntu] ubiquity should use time zone chosen to store locale

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  During installation I tell ubiquity where I currently live through
  selecting my country when defining the time zone (for me Luxembourg).
  Right after installation I have to define this again through
  "Regional&Language > Locale" because for example my clock displays
  AM/PM, decimal separators are wrong, ....Can we use the time zone
  selection also as initial setting for the country? (I am using kde
  BTW)

  Thanks
