Time in prompt not shown, when %P used (promptinit)

Hello

I'm using zsh 5.1.1-1ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 15.10. With the prompt command (from
promptinit), I set the prompt to "fire", which results in the following
prompt:

█▓▒░ask@ewzw032░▒▓██▓▒░ Don Okt 29
~/

Before Ubuntu 15.10, I had 14.04 and after the date ("Don Okt 29"), there
used to be the time. The time is now missing… :/

Variables:




PS1:
%B%F{yellow}%K{yellow}%{█▓▒░%}%B%F{white}%K{yellow}%n@%m%b%F{red}%K{yellow}%{░▒▓█%}%b%F{red}%K{black}%{█▓▒░%}%B%F{white}%K{black}
%D{%a %b %d} %D{%I:%M:%S%P}
%}%B%F{yellow}%K{black}%~/%b%f%k

PROMPT:
%B%F{yellow}%K{yellow}%{█▓▒░%}%B%F{white}%K{yellow}%n@%m%b%F{red}%K{yellow}%{░▒▓█%}%b%F{red}%K{black}%{█▓▒░%}%B%F{white}%K{black}
%D{%a %b %d} %D{%I:%M:%S%P}
%}%B%F{yellow}%K{black}%~/%b%f%k

RPOMPT:

(empty)



​The time should've been produced by: "
%D{%I:%M:%S%P}
​"

I noticed, that even a simple 'PROMPT=
%D{%I:%M:%S%P}
​
​
​$ ' doesn't show the time. But as soon as I remove the %P, it's working again.


I suppose, it somehow has to do with, that the time definition here in
Switzerland (German) is 24hours. There's no AM/PM.​


​I think, that this ​is in a sense a bug of zsh and/or promptinit, as
it doesn't check if the locale has am/pm.


Best ​Regards,​

Alexander
