This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,

Please write in English, because the Emacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing
list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

Hi,

When LANG is set to sv_SE the directory listing uses a period (".") to
delimit hours and minutes.  The dired-move-to-filename-regexp
variable, defined in dired.el and used by dired-move-to-filename, only
allows colon (":") to delimit hours and minutes, and, consequently,
dired will only find file names older than one year.  By changing the
"HH:MM" definition in dired-move-to-filename-regexp from 
        (HH:MM "[ 0-2][0-9]:[0-5][0-9]")
to 
        (HH:MM "[0-2][0-9][:.][0-5][0-9]") 
dired works properly again.  I'm using gentoo linux.

Thanks for your effort, sincerely

Sven
