Help, locale settings not used in xterm commands.
 

When I run 'locale' in xterm, I can see that everything is set to "nl_NL"
When I run 'date +%A' in xterm, which I also use in QBW, the result is in English and not in nl_NL (Dutch).
I also exported LC_ALL=nl_NL, but that didn't make any difference in xterm.

What do I need to do, to get my 'date +%A' command to present the name of the day in my own language?

B.t.w. in my unlock screen the day is presented in the correct language.

See bug 8291.

Next time I will search through bugs.maemo.org as well.

Thanks Ima

My gut feeling tells me this will never be fixed.

Is there some kind of workaround to get the date results in my own language?
The lock-screen shows it in my own language so there must be a way.

Edit: Found a workaround.
I'm using a tiny python script instead.
