From: "egmont at uhulinux dot hu" <sourceware-bugzilla@sourceware.org> To: glibc-bugs@sources.redhat.com Subject: [Bug localedata/181] [PATCH] POSIX first_weekday should be sunday Date: Fri, 07 Oct 2005 14:00:00 -0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <20051007140006.7988.qmail@sourceware.org> (raw) In-Reply-To: <20040525214848.181.pere@hungry.com> ------- Additional Comments From egmont at uhulinux dot hu 2005-10-07 14:00 ------- One more note: The localedata tree has a file named POSIX, and based on it the locale-archive database also has a POSIX entry. This file contains no "week" or "first_weekday" entries, so the glibc built-in default, 19971130 and 1 are used, which would lead to a calendar displayed beginning with Sunday if this locale entry would be reachable, but it isn't, since the built-in POSIX locale is used whenever the POSIX locale is requested. So glibc is inconsistent with itself, its built-in POSIX is different from what the file called POSIX says. This means that if someone creates a locale which copies the POSIX locale's time stuff: LC_TIME copy "POSIX" END LC_TIME then this locale will behave differently than the POSIX locale, as this new external locale will start the weeks on Sunday, unlike built-in POSIX. -- http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=181 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
