Public bug reported:
Being British, I am using the en_GB locale, so I would expect cal to
display months where Monday appears as the first day in the week.
Instead, it displays Sunday as the first day of the week, thus:
February 2012
Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa
1 2 3 4
5 6 7 8 9 10 11
12 13 14 15 16 17 18
19 20 21 22 23 24 25
26 27 28 29
For me, the LANG variable is set to en_GB.UTF-8
It seems that cal might be hardcoded to a US locale where Sunday is
always the first day of the week.
Note that this only appears to have happened on Ubuntu Oneiric (11.10).
