Bug#313539: libgtk2.0-0: Some more on GtkCalendar, perhaps found reason for bug.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: libgtk2.0-0
Version: 2.6.4-3
Followup-For: Bug #313539


Hi,

I think I found the reason for the bug by having a look at the source
code.
Looking at gtk/gtkcalendar.c, I found out that the first day of the week
is not determined using the nl_langinfo function but using a translation
string (line 710):
	week_start = _("calendar:week_start:0");
(similar issue for "calendar:MY")

This is of course a damn wrong ugly hack, as it's dependent first on the
LANGUAGE variable, instead of LC_TIME, LC_ALL or LANG (and all English speaking
users need to have the week starting on Monday).

Could you please now fix this bug, or make it fix?

Thanks, Eric
