I would have expected these strings to come from glib. But "July" seems
to be uncapitalized as "julho" in glib20.

But then, "Wednesday" is translated in glib20 not as "quarta-feira", but
as "4ª feira", so I guess indicator-datetime is getting these strings
from somewhere else.

A site search <https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=quarta-
feira+site%3Atranslations.launchpad.net> reveals a few other projects
with capitalized weekday names, but none that indicator-datetime would
be using.

Title:
  Lowercase months in Portuguese language

Status in indicator-datetime package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,

  Due to some modifications made to our mother language back in 2012.
  The months passed to be written with lowercase.

  Example:

  Quarta-feira, 29 de Julho de 2015 (before 2012)

  quarta-feira, 29 de julho de 2015 (since 2012)

  Where we can (translator community) fix this? We've been searching,
  but we can't deal with it.

  This is one bug we can't fix or solve for the ubuntu touch.

  Please, gives us some additional information on this subject.

  Thanks!
  Ivo Xavier - Ubuntu Portuguese Translators
