Decimal comma in xml files bug?

[Michael Meyer]

Hello, I'm running weewx 4.1.1 on Rpi 3b installed with setup.py.  To get a clean installation I installed buster from scratch.

Before I had installed version 3xxx on the same Rpi with Jessie running.

With a xml.tmpl I grabed the datas to work with them on my smart home system Domoticz.

With the new installation a problem popped up. The xml file have decimal comma instead of decimal points. It's not just my template is also eg. /home/weewx/public_html/rss.xml.

As I read in www decimal point for xml is necessary. My question is it a bug or is there something wrong within my system what I can change.

Any help appreciate

Michael

WeeWX formats numbers using Python's locale.format() facility, which typically uses your "default" locale. In your case, that locale must use commas as the decimal separator. 

To change, either change your locale with environment variable LANG to something that uses periods as decimal separators, or override the formatting.

To override the formatting, set option localize to False:

$current.outTemp.format(localize=False)
