Package: bsdmainutils
Version: 11.1.2+b1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/ncal
Dear Maintainer,
I was interested in [n]cal's behaviour around the Gregorian adoption
dates and noticed that ncal -b defaults to October 1582 regardless of
locale or -s specified country code, whereas plain "cal" uses the locale
correctly.
There follows an example shell session. Use of the "env" command is to
ensure shell aliases and functions are not responsible for the
unexpected behaviour.
Best Regards,
Carl W.
