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

[Reinhard Tartler]

ah,it seems that it worked for the original reporter because he has
perhaps an /etc/default/locale file.

What did work for me is the following command:

echo VDR_LANG="$LANG" | sudo tee -a /etc/default/vdr

This bug has been fixed in debian. The patch can be seen here:
http://patches.ubuntu.com/by-release/debian/v/vdr/vdr_1.6.0-8.patch
