Description of problem: When firstboot brings up the dialog to set the system time, it should use 12-hour time if appropriate for the current locale. Right now, it always uses 24-hour time. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): firstboot-1.1.4-1 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot the machine after the installer completes 2. Advance to the dialog to set the system clock 3. Actual results: The hours are set from 0-23. Expected results: The hours are set from 1-12 + AM/PM.
As far as I know, there is no table to tell me if 12-hour or 24-time is appropriate for a given locale. Without that information, there is no way for me to know what the right setting is. Therefore, it uses 24-hour time which is probably correct for the majority of users.
How about making this bug dependent on having a way to get this information then, rather than resolving it WONTFIX? It's also worth noting that: date +"%X" prints 12-hour time, so it determines somehow that this is the correct time representation.
I have no plans to implement this. Out of all the people that have used firstboot, this is the first request I've had for this. If at some time there is a more widespread desire for this, I will reconsider.
