Does OOo really work at all now with those Locale settings?
That would be great!

In my opinion, those are the correct locale settings for a
speaker of U.S. English living in Israel. In general.
But not for OOo.

I found that, at least in previous versions, OOo got
hopelessly confused with these settings. The only
way to work was to use either both equal en_US -
to get OOo with the English user interface - or both
equal he_IL - to get the Hebrew user interface.

So users who need your locale settings must
create a special launcher for OOo apps that run
OOo in a modified locale. Yuck. This gets trashed
every time Debian updates anything.

There was a thread about that problem on this list
a while ago.

Is this bug fixed now, at least partially?
