reopen 313539 found 313539 2.8.12-1 thanks for the fish Hi,
I could again reproduce this error with the version in testing (2.8.12-1). The error disturbs me in jpilot but I can reproduce it as described in the bug info: $ cp -R /usr/share/doc/gtk2.0-examples/examples/calendar . $ cd calendar $ gunzip calendar.c.gz $ make $ ./calendar (the week starts on 'Sun') $ env | grep -e LANG -e LC LANG=en_IE.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en_IE:en_US:en_GB:en $ unset LANGUAGE $ ./calendar (the week starts on 'Sun') $ LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 ./calendar (the week starts on 'dim'!) $ LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 ./calendar (the week starts on 'Mo') Something sounds really broken here, in France as well as in Ireland (see e.g. http://www.timeanddate.com/calendar/index.html?year=2006&country=32), the week should start on Monday. My locales are fine, thank you: $ /usr/sbin/validlocale en_IE.UTF-8 locale 'en_IE.UTF-8' valid and available $ /usr/sbin/validlocale fr_FR.UTF-8 locale 'fr_FR.UTF-8' valid and available $ /usr/sbin/validlocale de_DE.UTF-8 locale 'de_DE.UTF-8' valid and available I tried the foo.c file as well, but it returns Sunday all the time (in the respective language). Thanks for your help, tell me if I can provide more information, Eric -- Eric de France, d'Allemagne et de Navarre
