Bug Description

Hi,

Cubic is crashing on startup :

   model.project.create_date = constructor.reformat_time_stamp(create_date, TIME_STAMP_FORMAT, LONG_T>
 File "/usr/share/cubic/utilities/constructor.py", line 187, in reformat_time_stamp
   struct_time = time.strptime(time_stamp, old_format)
 File "/usr/lib/python3.8/_strptime.py", line 562, in _strptime_time
   tt = _strptime(data_string, format)[0]
 File "/usr/lib/python3.8/_strptime.py", line 349, in _strptime
   raise ValueError("time data %r does not match format %r" %
alueError: time data 'jeudi août 27, 2020 10:10' does not match format '%A %B %d, %Y %I:%M %p'

Fix released in Cubic version 2020.12-37-release.

Thanks for bring this to my attention.

I apologize it took much longer to fix than I had initially thought.

The bug was due to a fundamental inconsistency with how Python converts date times in different locales to and from strings.

Please create a new bug report if you encounter any further issues.

Tip:
The first time you run this version of Cubic, make sure the following file/path is available so Cubic can copy some files it needs from the original ISO: /home/user/Downloads/ubuntu-20.04-desktop-amd64.iso
