Date problem

Luniel12 · 09-15-2011, 06:38 AM

Hi!

I'm experiencing weird bug in Calibre Date-column.
In my native language september is syyskuu, and for some weird reason Calibre keeps on writing it as "s11skuu"

.
Other month names seem to work correctly, it just keeps writing september, both the full month name and the shortening, with 11.. s11s. s11skuu.

Any ideas what could be done? I've changed my date settings to DD/MM/YYYY as I keep forgetting that its a bug, and there is no need to have a panick attack.

yours

What language is this?

Looks to be finnish

calibre doesn't have a finnish traslation.

This looks to me like the two 'y' are being interpreted as representing the two-digit year. Extrapolating from Kovid's comment I'd guess that the only fix would be adding a finnish translation, though.
