[Bug 325277] [NEW] VDR i18n doesn't work if LANGUAGE env is set

[m0sia]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: vdr

In Ubuntu Server environment variable is set. In my example:
cat /etc/environment
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games"
LANGUAGE="ru_RU:ru:en_GB:en"
LANG="ru_RU.UTF-8"

If it is set vdr doesn't find any locales and i can see errors in syslog:
Feb  4 10:59:34 home-server vdr: [11317] VDR version 1.6.0-1 started

If i remove LANGUAGE from environment and leave only LANG, vdr works correct:

Feb  4 15:23:48 home-server vdr: [19278] switched to user 'vdr'
Feb  4 15:23:48 home-server vdr: [19278] codeset is 'UTF-8' - known
Feb  4 15:23:49 home-server vdr: [19278] found 23 locales in /usr/share/locale

Ubuntu 8.10
vdr 1.6.0-5ubuntu2
