[Bug localedata/17426] New: date format not set for en_IN


https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17426

            Bug ID: 17426
           Summary: date format not set for en_IN
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.20
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: localedata
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: arjun.is at lostca dot se
                CC: libc-locales at sourceware dot org

executing:
$ LC_TIME=en_IN.UTF-8 date +%x

prints:
Tuesday 23 September 2014

This isn't the format used in India.

I have typically seen DD-MM-YY(YY) or DD/MM/YY(YY) in use in most places
including official tax forms, etc.

Here is the link to a copy of the Constitution of India:
http://india.gov.in/my-government/constitution-india/constitution-india-full-text

It appears to consistently use "DD-MM-YYYY" (when I looked at the main "Parts I
to XXII" document).
