Package: cal
Severity: wishlist
The last day of the Julian calendar was 4 October 1582, followed by the first
Gregorian calendar day: 15 October 1582. This is the change date for the
Roman Catholic countries, and doesn't works in cal:
$ cal 10 1582
octubre 1582
dl dt dc dj dv ds dg
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
8 9 10 11 12 13 14
15 16 17 18 19 20 21
22 23 24 25 26 27 28
29 30 31
September 1752 whas the adoption date outside of Roman Catholic countries. This
works fine in cal:
$ cal 9 1752
setembre 1752
dl dt dc dj dv ds dg
1 2 14 15 16 17
18 19 20 21 22 23 24
25 26 27 28 29 30
Maybe cal can read the system locale in order to determine each country
religion in 1582 and 1752.
