[one-users] VM deploy_id in non-English environment causes trouble

[Pellaeon Lin]

Hmm, I didn't know of 'onehost sync', so the results in my previous email
probably weren't very accurate.
I did some more testing, this time I did always make sure my changes to the
scripts were applied to /var/tmp/one/* , and reverted my changes to
oneadmin's .bashrc .

My conclusion is that we need not only "export LANG=C" in scripts_common.sh
but also "export LANGUAGE=en_US:en" to make shell commands always return in
English.

But there was another confusing result:

root at cnmc20:/var/tmp/one/vmm/kvm# su oneadmin
> oneadmin at cnmc20:/var/tmp/one/vmm/kvm$ cd
> oneadmin at cnmc20:~$ export | grep LANG
> declare -x LANG="zh_TW.UTF-8"
> declare -x LANGUAGE="zh_TW:zh"
> oneadmin at cnmc20:~$ virsh list

This means we actually only need "LANG=C" to override shell command's
output locale?

My default locale:

> root at cnmc20:/var/tmp/one# grep 'LANG' /etc/default/locale
> LANG="zh_TW.UTF-8"
> LANGUAGE="zh_TW:zh"

My issue is solved, but I still really don't know why.

I will do a fresh install of Ubuntu and OpenNebula some time later and try
to reproduce my previous results, if it is reproducible, I will file a bug
report.

Thanks for your help, Javier ! :-)
