Description 10lyah+cry6k1yl9z04w 2014-04-20 12:47:32 UTC 
Right now the calendar, shown in the top bar of GNOME Shell, shows Sunday as the first day of week and (AFAIK) there is no way to change it. I think that users should be able to set it to Monday.

No, what is considered the first day of a week is locale-dependent[0]. On most systems that should be LC_TIME, with a fallback to the GTK+'s corresponding setting (based on LC_MESSAGES).

So can you please provide your locale settings?

In the GNOME settings I have "Language" and "Formats" set to English (UK). However, during the installation of Fedora I chose English (US) and now 'echo $LC_TIME' gives me 'en_US.UTF-8'.

Did you log out after changing the setting?

I did.
Comment 5 Florian Müllner 2014-04-20 18:19:02 UTC 
Then I'd say we have a bug either in gnome-control-center or localed.
