Re: MATE Clock Panel App Glitch

I'm not familiar with MATE as such, or its clock app, but having configured
other similar clock apps in the past, the fact that it says "_l" suggests to me
that somewhere there is a typo--i.e., that "_l" is somewhere that "%l" should
be.

See strftime(3) for possible values.
