RussianNeuroMancer,

Thanks for your bug report. I cannot read Russian, so I cannot really tell whether this bug should be a duplicate of bug 579134. Could you please give more info on where you see this string (perhaps with a screenshot) and whether you think it is indeed a duplicate? Thanks.

You can then set the bug status from Incomplete to New.

What you mean? It's about bug or about string? This bug not duplicate.

Thanks for the info. The string seems to come from the clock applet in gnome-panel, so I've updated the affected package accordingly (indicator-datetime shows only the time of the day, not the day or month).

You might also want to report this upstream in GNOME and add a link to the upstream bug.

This bug cannot be fixed until Russian locale is updated.
There root cause is https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/langpack-locales/+bug/124987 and by some Russophobic conspiracy no patches submitted there had been applied.

Thanks for the pointer to the main bug, of which I'm going to mark as a duplicate.

For the record, there is no such thing as a conspiracy, just people being busy with lots of other stuff :)
