That is one. (The "PC (Print Cartridge) Load Letter" error message was common
here on HP printers, because you had A4 paper in the printer, but the PC
sending a print job to it was set to Letter due to a US locale. It actually
doesn't make sense that it occurs in the Office Space movie, unless that was
set in Canada or similar rather than the US. In short, I've known WTF "PC Load
Letter" means for a long time.)
Metric instead of imperial units of measurement.
I was taught in primary school that we use space as thousands separators rather
than a comma.
Having the incorrect spell check dictionaries is one of the most obvious
differences when using a US locale. 'colour' vs 'color', 'neighbour' vs
'neighbor', and all the 's' vs 'z's e.g. 'initialise' vs 'initialize'.

--- Comment #14 from Adam Williamson <awilliam(a)redhat.com> ---
Discussed at 2013-06-12 freeze exception review meeting:
http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2013-06-12/f19final-…
. Agreed this is rejected as a freeze exception: given the way F19 does locale
selection - it's directly tied to translation availability - there isn't a
small, simple fix here, we can't just 'add' AU somehow. Any change that fixes
this would necessarily be a larger scale revamp of how locale selection
actually works, per comment #11. So it's not appropriate for a freeze
exception, it's more F20 stuff.

Default papersize A4 might be a reason.

For Fedora 20 I'm planning to come up with locale selection for the Anaconda,
but I'm not going to do such major changes in this phase of F19. Using timezone
is not a generally working solution (think about timezones like US/Central
etc.).

Bug ID: 955179
Summary: Canna package should be built with PIE flags
Product: Fedora
Version: 19
Component: Canna
Severity: unspecified
Priority: unspecified
Assignee: tagoh(a)redhat.com
Reporter: dkholia(a)redhat.com
QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: i18n-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, tagoh(a)redhat.com
Category: ---
Description of problem:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#PIE says that "you MUST
enable the PIE compiler flags if your package is long running ...".
However, currently Canna is not being built with PIE flags. This is a
clear violation of the packaging guidelines.
This issue (in its wider scope) is being discussed at,
https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/1104https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-March/180827.html
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Canna-3.7p3-38.fc19.x86_64.rpm
How reproducible:
You can use following programs to check if a package is hardened:
http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/rpm-chksec
OR
https://github.com/kholia/checksec
Steps to Reproduce:
Get scanner.py from https://github.com/kholia/checksec
$ ./scanner.py Canna-3.7p3-38.fc19.x86_64.rpm

FWIW, it's fairly easy to change this after install in GNOME; just go to the
Region & Language control center applet (you can launch it directly by opening
the overview and searching for 'regio'), and you can set Language and Formats
there. English (Australia) shows after you expand the list one time (it only
shows very common locales at first, click the three dots in a vertical line to
expand the list). If you have only one user with admin privileges, this setting
should then be applied systemwide. If you have more than one user, or your user
doesn't have admin privileges, you can set the systemwide locale via the "Login
Screen" button.
Out of interest, is there something specific you stand to gain by having the
locale set correctly, or is it just a desire to have it correct? I'm in Canada,
but I usually just keep the en(US) locale, it's close enough in all practical
respects.
