Package: automysqlbackup
Version: 2.6+debian.4-1
Severity: normal

Hello,
using a locale different from an english one, the script fails to detect
the correct size of the backup files.

To find the size it uses the  du command and the it searches for a
"total" string using sed and grep, this method failswhen the output of
the du command is not in english.

Can I suggest to force the locale using LANG=C before du?

something like:

ATTSIZE=`LANG=C du -c $BACKUPFILES | grep "[[:digit:][:space:]]total$" | sed 
s/\s*total//`

at line 675 of /usr/sbin/automysqlbackup

Thank you so much.

Cheers,
francesco
