Click "About Calendar" in localized builds (1.8 branch tested) shows the user agent string that contains en-US instead of de oder da(tested as well).

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.13pre) Gecko/20080219 Calendar/0.8pre

If this is the wrong componet, please change it to the right one.
Confirmed.

I think the problem is that the file sunbird-l10n.js is shipped in the wrong folder and therefore has no affect:

Currently: sunbird\defaults\preferences\sunbird-l10n.js

Should be: sunbird\defaults\pref\sunbird-l10n.js

This mean offer locale specific preferences like Week start are not working.

The line (90) added for Bug 413868 needs the PREF_DIR argument too I guess.

Doesn't work in Sunbird 0.8 Release. I have to change general.useragent.locale to my locale (hsb="Upper Sorbian") manually, then it works.

Maybe your are not using a localized build but an en-US build with language pack installed.

I'm preparing a zip version. But I think Sunbird (and the same issue is for Fx and TB) should take the general.useragent.locale from /global/intl.properties. What else this information in /global/intl.properties is for?
