[Bug 1556399] Re: LANG=C; ubuntu-support-status --show-unsupported fails from non-English language

[sudodus]

Standard Ubuntu is also affected, so it is not a Lubuntu bug. I used the
last 'current' iso file.

As you can see 'df' works with 'LANG=C', but not 'ubuntu-support-
status'. It is possible that other command line programs fail too.

Title:
  LANG=C; ubuntu-support-status --show-unsupported fails from non-
  English language

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This bug report corresponds to #1556386, but is created in a clean
  live system, which must not be 'private', and which is not affected by
  several other installed packages and tweaks.

  The live system is using Swedish. I try to get the output in English,
  so I used LANG=C.
