Description r0bertchik 2012-04-16 00:56:59 UTC
In the past when I have used OpenOffice, when I selected "Native Numbering", as long as my time/date format was set to use Hebrew, OO would allow me to use correct hebrew consecutive numbering, such that after the letter "י" instead of receiving "כ" as you would using normal "Hebrew" numbering, I would get "יא".

I am using the latest distro of Ubuntu x86 with an English interface. I noticed the change after I upgraded my distro from which the previous one used OO.

I also spoke to Lior about this.

When setting the locale to Hebrew (through the command line or in LibO language options), I would get native numbering in Hebrew like you wanted.

Just changing the LC_TIME variable doesn't help (LibO 3.6.3.1 on debian unstable 64bit), and the native numbering are in English. I used "export LC_TIME=he_IL.UTF-8".

I meant LC_NUMERIC=he_IL.UTF-8

In any case, of this is a regression we need to know if which version it worked. I've tested 3.5.3 and no change....
