Python and i18n

[=?ISO-8859-1?Q?Jo=E3o?= Alfredo]

Hi people.

My LANG environment variable is set to pt_BR.UTF-8 and when I run a
date command:

$ date
Sáb Out 18 11:19:42 BRT 2003
I get the current date in the appropriate locale.

Now when i run the following command in the python interpreter:

$ python
Python 2.2.2 (#1, Feb 24 2003, 19:13:11)
[GCC 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-4)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.i get the date in US locale format.

Does python support the pt_BR locale?? Am I doing something wrong??

Thanks in advance!

import time, locale
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "")
