[Bug localedata/15357] New: locale de_AT: abbreviated weekdays are incorrect


http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15357

             Bug #: 15357
           Summary: locale de_AT: abbreviated weekdays are incorrect
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: localedata
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: bernhard.hartleb@gmail.com
                CC: libc-locales@sourceware.org
    Classification: Unclassified


In the Austrian locale (de_AT) weekdays are abbreviated with three-letters.
This is not correct and never used in practice. The correct form are the two
letter abbreviations as in de_DE.

My guess is that people usually just choose the German locale and therefore
never come across this problem.

The same reasoning could be true for de_BE, de_CH and de_LU.
Although I can not confirm this for those countries.

To fix this, de_AT can use the same abday codes as de_DE.
