GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 735772
Consider adding other calendar types
Last modified: 2021-07-05 14:23:32 UTC
There are extensions for some of those, but they are of varying qualities, and it's hard to keep them updated. There exists at least: - Persian calendar (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/240/persian-calendar/) - Hijri (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/240/persian-calendar/ and https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/26/islamic-datetime-functions/) - Chinese lunar calendar (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/675/lunar-calendar/) and maybe: - Jewish calendar (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/554/gnome-hdate/)
See bug 624959 for some initial (and outdated) patches.
That would just leave the Chinese lunar calendar ("Jalili" is the same as the "Persian" or "Solar Hijri" calendar, from what I can gather).
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
