Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Closing LibreOffice results in a crash

Can you use the , instead or . for currency in any other locale settings, for 
example the global setting for Mandriva on your machine?  We had this problem in 
Ubuntu's Launchpad Answers section a long time ago and found the South African 
settings refused to allow the , to be used and it turned out to be a 
long-running argument in the translators/LoCo team.  Apparently the vocal 
majority saw . as being more modern and/or less dispruptive because the , is 
used as a special character in formatting apparently

Hi Sigrid:

I am also running Mandriva 2010.1 but with KDE desktop with LORC1 ... 
default French setting is French (France), locale (en-CA) with CAD as 
default currency. Java version is Sun 1.6.0.22.

My version does not crash and I can also change UI from Français 
(France) to English (US) and back without any problems.

I have 3 other Mdv + KDE + LO setups in our house at this point and 
these do not have this problem.

Not sure if this is a problem with Gnome as it seems we have the same 
setup.

Cheers

Marc
