Package: cal
Severity: normal
Hi,
By default, 'cal' shows weeks starting on sundays.
In my country, the convention is to make them start on mondays.
'cal' provides the -M option for this.
This option worked in Lenny.
This option is documented in the man page of 'cal' in Squeeze.
But in Squeeze, calling 'cal -M' produces the following error message:
~>cal -M
Usage: cal [general options] [-hjy] [[month] year]
cal [general options] [-hj] [-m month] [year]
ncal [general options] [-bhJjpwySM] [-s country_code] [[month] year]
ncal [general options] [-bhJeoSM] [year]
General options: [-NC3] [-A months] [-B months]
For debug the highlighting: [-H yyyy-mm-dd] [-d yyyy-mm]
This bug is not as benign as one might think because I'm pretty sure it will
make me miss an appointment by 24h sooner or later...
Thanks!
Seb.
