Public bug reported:
During installation of Hardy, I selected my location as Lagos/Nigeria.
It appears that this resulted in my system locale being set to en_NG.
There's nothing wrong with this, but I noticed that many system tools
fail to launch unless I change my locale to a more recognised one
(example en_UK).
system-config-printer fails to run and you can see the error message when
launched from a terminal as:
Traceback (most recent call last):
