someone should please please fix this bug already, I just encountered same 
thing when I installed Kubuntu karmic on my brothers laptop, I couldn't even 
search with KpackageKit, or even get jockey-kde to work until I changed my 
locale to UK. I don't have a problem working round this bug but there are 
millions in my country who will be trying ubuntu for the first time, this bug 
renders, software-center, kpackagekit, gnome-menu-editor, and lots of other 
python based applications unusable. At least I was able to trace the problem 
here  
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python2.6/+bug/482386/comments/1 all 
that is needed is someone with strings within ubuntu to apply the relevant  fix 
which could then be back-ported to hardy, intrepid and jaunty. Please I know my 
country is small and not important but we have lots of people who would like to 
use ubuntu too. This bug is over 2 years old already and all that is needed is 
add 'en_ng': 'en_GB.ISO8859-1',
'en_ng.iso88591': 'en_GB.ISO8859-1', to to usr/lib/python2.6/locale.py .. If 
this were some other "important country" affected by this it would have been 
fixed in a matter of minutes. Please someone should do something, this bug is a 
major deal breaker for Nigerians and its over 2 years and running
