I just tried to run engine-setup and got the following error.

While I can easily change the locale settings on the box, I really think
this is a bit of a crazy limitation as almost every other bit of
software seems to assume en_AU = en_US as almost no software ends up
creating an Australian localization for it. The character set is the
same, the keyboards are the same, and I can't see any reason why en_AU
(or say en_NZ) would cause a problem. The only differences I can think
of are dates (DD/MM/YYYY vs MM/DD/YYYY) and the metric system.

What would need to be the process to fix this? Is this just because no
one has been willing to test or it is a policy?

actually, this was blocked due to locale and timezone issues to minimize problems until further testing, but later opened to allow reporting of any such issues. so, I assume you are trying 3.0? as this should have been fixed for 3.1 already:
