[Bug 1442207] [NEW] Wrong (work-)week start for pt_PT

 

Public bug reported:

According to the default pt_PT definitions, the (work-)week start is set
at Sunday, which is incorrect.

The correct (work-)week start is Monday, because Portugal abides by EN
28601:1992, since it became an European Union member 6 years prior to
issue of that norm.

pt_PT was the only European Union locale that did not get the needed
correction in these definitions.

Therefore I request to have the first_weekday and first_workday entries
entries set at LC_TIME with the default value of 2 (which stands for
Monday) for the pt_PT locale.

Thank you.

Post Scriptum:

There is no need for Ubuntu/package version information because this bug
is quite ancient (20+ years?) and precedes the birth of the Ubuntu
distribution.
