Title:
  zram doesn't start on non-english locale

Status in zram-config package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Line:
  > totalmem=`free | grep -e "^Mem:" | sed -e 's/^Mem: *//' -e 's/  *.*//'`

  of /usr/bin/init-zram-swapping is wrong, because it doesn't account
  system locale, in my case Ukrainian, free gives such output:

  > nazar-pc at nazar-pc ~> free

  As you can see, instead of "Mem" I have "Пам." here, and correcting
  script to that makes zram working, so there is need for better regexp
