Wrong d_fmt definition in pl_PL locale

[Paweł Moll]

Ubuntu 7.10, file /usr/share/i18n/locales/pl_PL, line 215:

d_fmt "<U0025><U002D><U0064><U0020><U0025><U0062><U0020><U0025><U0059>"

This data format definition gives:

$ LC_ALL=pl_PL.UTF8 locale -k d_fmt
d_fmt="%-d %b %Y"

Minus sign is wrong here, isn't it? A symptom of this problem is (among others I believe) a problem with Evolution calendar: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evolution/+bug/32089

Assuming that "%d %b %Y" format is correct for polish date (that's another discussion ;-), the definition should be:

d_fmt "<U0025><U0064><U0020><U0025><U0062><U0020><U0025><U0059>"
