Description Roozbeh Pournader 2006-05-16 05:32:57 UTC
Rhythmbox has copied some code from eel (eel_strdup_strftime) some while ago, which it needs to update in order to support some of the standard strftime format strings that eel previously didn't support but now supports (like "%OH": see man 3 strftime).

If the code is note updated, certain locales like Persian (fa_IR) cannot show the proper date and time for the last playing time in the properties box.

The bug still exists in HEAD. Will attach a patch.
