Comment 0 for bug 225970

Various scripts in hplip source code are dependent on locale,
for e.g. take a look at this demonstration:

# LC_ALL=pl_PL hp-check 2>&1 | grep -A 7 QUEUES
| INSTALLED CUPS PRINTER QUEUES |
---------------------------------

----------------------
| SANE CONFIGURATION |
----------------------
# _

hp-check found no queues with LC_ALL=pl_PL environment on my system.
The same with LC_ALL=C:

# LC_ALL=C hp-check 2>&1 | grep -A 6 QUEUES
| INSTALLED CUPS PRINTER QUEUES |
---------------------------------

F380
----
Type: Printer
# _

At this time ("C" locale) the printer queue was found.

Other components of hplip doesn't work on my system neither
in non-en_US locales: hp-toolbox doesn't find any HP devices
nor does the printing work at all.

Above example was tested on hplip 2.8.2, but 2.8.4 source code
seems to have the same bugs.
For e.g. in check.py (line 503) available printers are filtered using output of
`lpstat -v` and the regular expression:

        lpstat_pat = re.compile(r"""^device for (.*): (.*)""", re.IGNORECASE)

In non-en_US locale `lpstat` output starts with localised message
instead of "device for", so check.py doesn't find any devices
and printing doesn't work at all.
