Обсуждение: Number format problem

Hi,

There seems to be some tricky behaviour with number formating ant french
locale.

i tried the following request:
select to_char(1485.12, '9G999D99');

I was expecting to get: 1 485,12

But, surprinsingly, I got 1,1485,12.

My postgresql server is an 8.1.2 version. The same problem occurs under
Ubuntu Breezy and Debian Testing.
My current configuration is
LC_NUMERIC=fr_FR@euro
client_encoding=LATIN9
server_encoding=LATIN9

I tried to reconfigure locales and restart the server, but I can't get
the result I expect.

I really don't know what else I could do.

Sincerely,
