Thanks for the report, seems that langpacks for calendar was wrongly generated. I'm currently doing new builds. Please stay tuned for updated packages.

Comment 6 Steve Bryant 2017-01-10 09:38:07 UTC
thunderbird-45.6.0-3.fc25.x86_64 does not fix the issue for me with when LANG=en_GB.utf8.

Still need to launch with "LANG=en_US.utf8 thunderbird", which causes times to be displayed using AM/PM format rather than 24hr.

Comment 7 Steve Bryant 2017-01-10 10:59:19 UTC
Update - thunderbird-45.6.0-3.fc25.x86_64 calendar works with a clean profile, so replacing the "Lightning" extension files in my profile with those from a clean profile fixed my issue.
