Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome
This bug is about the calendar applet in GNOME, but I don't know which
package that is.
Latest Hardy, updated as of 2008-03-29.
In short: When in Sweden, the week should start on Monday, no matter
what language is chosen. When I pick English, it's set to Sunday (locale
becomes en_US).
That it is even tied to language or locale is fundamentally broken, as
is the fact that it is not possible to choose differently if the default
guess is wrong. Why the *language* would matter is anybody's guess.
See bug #2098 among others for background, discussion, etc.
But, as it's broken and is probably gonna stay that way, I ask that a
en_SE locale is added instead. It's extremely common here to use English
language (on Windows installs as well), for a number of reasons. Windows
does the right thing with the calendar though.
If an en_SE locale is added and being picked when a user installs the
English/Sweden combination, it's resolved for us at least, like it was
for en_GB in bug #2098. Picking them off one at a time like that is not
optimal, but it's better than nothing. :)
Thanks!
