<div dir="ltr">If you read the comments in the first article posted by Luigi you'll see that they already realize this was a non-starter. People were already complaining with the same things we have pointed out. There was a comment from May 2014 that the functionality would be returned in the next year or so, which is rapidly approaching. If not, they they can expect a deluge of complaints when people start actively using Plasma5 - better to get it fixed before widespread adoption to avoid all that.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Mar 10, 2015 at 10:36 AM, Glenn Holmer <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:shadowm@lyonlabs.org" target="_blank">shadowm@lyonlabs.org</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><span class="">On 03/10/2015 09:24 AM, Gerald B.

</span>In addition, it's quite clumsy to navigate a list of dozens of countries<br>
(same for each option under "Detailed Settings") without knowing what<br>
you'll get until you try one.<br>

"KLocale is also still there, in the kde4support library, but it’s<br>
deprecated, and included as a porting aid and compatibility layer."<br>
<br>
Then why not use it until this functionality is provided in Qt?<br>
<br>
"QLocale, as opposed to the deprecated KLocale doesn’t allow to set<br>
specific properties for outside users. This is, in my opinion, a valid<br>
choice"<br>
<br>
Respectfully disagree.<br>
