            Bug ID: 109058
           Summary: LibreOffice does not respect LC_ system settings
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.4.0.1 rc
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: h.m.brand at xs4all.nl

LibreOffice completely ignores all deviations from defaults to a $LANG as the
system stored in LC_ALL, LC_PAPER, LC_TIME, etc

For my work I want most of en_US.utf8, but e.g. *NEVER* paper size Letter of
date format M/D/Y, so my (changed) system locales are

$ echo $LANG
en_US.UTF-8
$ echo $LC_ALL
$ env | grep LC_
$ locale -ck LC_PAPER
LC_PAPER

monetary-decimal-point-wc=44
monetary-thousands-sep-wc=32

And NONE of those deviations are respected, making my developer life harder.

This is not new. I reported this back in 2009 to the OpenOffice team, and no
action was taken whatsoever. I just hope filing this ticket might help.

This is the case in all LibreOffice versions I have access to.
