Jamu script crashes in dutch locale

[launchpad@…]

I get the following error whenever the jamy.py script is run by a cron job:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/usr/share/mythtv/mythvideo/scripts/jamu.py", line 6435, in <module> main() File "/usr/share/mythtv/mythvideo/scripts/jamu.py", line 6420, in main process.processMythTvMetaData() File "/usr/share/mythtv/mythvideo/scripts/jamu.py", line 5588, in processMythTvMetaData

return func(string)

ValueError?: invalid literal for float(): 0,000000

I managed to solve this by exporting a locale in the mythvideo cron scripts:

#!/bin/sh #Hourly massive update to ensure users see graphics coming in for upcoming recordings and current recordings DIRECTORY=$(grep ^{mythtv /etc/passwd | awk -F : '{print $6}') if [ -f "$DIRECTORY/.mythtv/config.xml" ]; then}

su mythtv -c "export locale=nl_NL.UTF-8; /usr/bin/python /usr/share/mythtv/mythvideo/scripts/jamu.py -MW >> '/var/log/mythtv/jamu.log'"

# su mythtv -c "/home/mythtv/jamu >> '/var/log/mythtv/jamu.log'" fi

In addition, I had to insert a call to locale.resetlocale() into the main() method of jamu.py:

def main():

"""Support jamu from the command line returns True """ locale.resetlocale()

parser = OptionParser?(usage=u"%prog usage: jamu -hbueviflstdnmoCRFUDSGN [parameters]\n <series name/SID or 'series/SID and season number' or 'series/SID and season number and episode number' or 'series/SID and episode name' or video file/directory paired with destination directory'>")

I'm not a python expert, so maybe there are better ways to solve the problem. But maybe you can use this.

Cheers,

Jamu must be run in a correct UTF-8 locale to support UTF-8 characters and numbering. It's in the instructions.
