[11.04] gdm doesn't display time in right format (english installation w/ german locales)

Thanks for your help to make Ubuntu better by reporting this bug.

While the language is English and the formats setting German, the weekday is displayed in German and the time is shown in 12 hour format. Quite contary to how it should be, in other words. :(

The linked branch contains a proposed fix of this issue. If you want to test the fix, you can install a gdm build from my PPA: https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/misc

This bug was fixed in the package gdm - 3.0.4-0ubuntu1
