[Bug 1442207] Re: Wrong (work-)week start for pt_PT
As regards Ubuntu, the source package is langpack-locales, not glibc.
You can go to
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/langpack-
locales/2.13+git20120306-19
and download the langpack-locales_2.13+git20120306-19.debian.tar.xz
file. When extracting it, you'll find the patch, which adds
first_weekday to pt_PT, in debian/patches/debian-first_weekday.diff .
(Basically the same patch is present in the source of the locales
package in Debian.)
As regards first_workday, it defaults to 2, so it doesn't matter that
it's not explicitly set. Hence the output from my terminal commands in
comment #1.
Please file another bug report if you observe some wrong behavior in
this respect on a current Ubuntu install.

Title:
Wrong (work-)week start for pt_PT
Status in langpack-locales package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
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.
